OpenAI are testing a new model on the Web Dev Arena @lmarena_ai under the name 'Anonymous Chatbot 0717'. I can't believe I'm gonna say this, but it is genuinely at a completely different level of front end coding – far better than Sonnet, o3, Gemini 2.5 Pro, or Grok 4.

Open Source Impact: From VS Code to Billion-Dollar AI Startups
By
–
With all the saga around @windsurf_ai over the last 72 hours, it’s worth looking back to 2015, when VS Code was launched and open-sourced. The decision to open source ultimately led to at least 2 startups valued at $12bn+ in total. There are many stories to be told: pivots,

Since the Grok 4 release, several independent benchmarks have emerged. They aren't necessarily general or standard, but it is interesting to see how the official release (#1 everywhere) compares on benchmarks that Grok 4 likely wasn't fully optimised for. The results are quite

Grok 4 Token Efficiency Compared to o3 Model
By
–
Grok 4 is really expensive – not just because its price per token is higher (it's priced the same as Sonnet or around 2x o3), but also because it needs to generate about 2x more tokens than o3 to complete the same tasks. We can see this clearly from data provided by

By
–
The reason the Grok 4 launch is interesting isn't because this model is so great that you should drop everything and use it instead (it isn't). It's interesting because of what it tells us about model trends. What we've learned:
– Grok 4 had no extra pre-train compute compared
