Cannot wait to use Gemini 3.8 Flash (74% on DeepSWE btw, higher than Fable 5) on this thing Been using Grok 4.7 a bunch today and I really really like it. It's snappy, follows instructions well, and the "fast mode" is very fast

Been using Grok 4.7 a bunch today and I really really like it. It's snappy, follows instructions well, and the "fast mode" is very fast But price is a huge issue... 1. I don't have good data for this yet, but it's pretty clearly not all that efficient (esp next to something like Astra) 2. The pricing really isn't the same as Grok 4.6. Over 200K tokens it doubles and with fast mode it increases even more 3. The usage limits at least in grok build are BAD. I'm on the $300/mo. supergrok heavy. I've used ~$40 and it's burned ~8% of my weekly limit. This is nothing compared to what u get from OpenAI or even Anthropic... I haven't been pushing it super hard in there yet b/c I'm on crappy airplane wifi, but I'm really worried I'm gonna rip through the limits at a brutal rate. One of the best parts of previous grok models was you basically got unlimited usage in Cursor/Grok Build on the big plan, that (attached screenshot is from grok build analyzing it's own usage from today)
Theo read it aloud at 15:56 Regardless, Ben has been my go-to Grock defender.

I ran this thing through 10 tasks on DeepSWE (so there could be a ton of variance in it's real score, this is a subset), but uh...
Theo read it aloud at 1:14 Him and I were playing with it, and he started benching it against the subset of Deep Sweep problems that were public.

Just had a new holy shit moment with GPT-6 Astra... Just had a new holy shit moment with GPT-6 Astra... Asked it to setup the vid I just recorded in Final Cut (import clips, color grading, sync clips, etc.) to get ready to edit Hadn't actually watched it work like this live before, below is the live reaction from me + my editor Oh wait, no, no, it didn't.

Theo read it aloud at 14:53 This is a demo that Ben Davis did showing how he uses computer use with Astra, not to edit the video, but to get everything set up to start the edit
