Gemini 4 Hydrogen Tiers Fall Well Off the Intelligence-vs-Cost Pareto Front

poigre · reddit · 2026-11-13

A Reddit user shared a chart from ai-pareto.web.app plotting the Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index against cost per task: most Gemini 4 Hydrogen tiers (b, c, d), along with several GPT-6.1 Terra and GPT-6.1 Sol tiers, sit visibly off the Pareto front, with higher-intelligence options available at equal cost. Only the top (a) tier approaches the front. The poster's point: Gemini 4 Hydrogen is far from Pareto-optimal on intelligence per dollar.
