Betting on the Frontier: Open Model to Beat Opus 5.5 at Kernel Optimization in 3 Months?
teortaxesTex · x · 2026-11-11
xdotli predicts an open model better than Opus 5.5 at RSI-style tasks (kernel optimization, compute multipliers) within 3 months. teortaxesTex takes the opposite side: he's no longer convinced the upcoming generation of Chinese models makes real progress toward Astra, 6.1 Sol, Fable 5.1 or Opus 5.5, suspecting they may hit a wall for months — "hope to be wrong."
