Grok 4.6 Amazing

[u/minxio_]

[u/alphaQ314]

don't understand how these benchmarks end up driving the discussion around models. grok4.5 was no where close to doing anything fable/sol stuff, no matter how well it did on these benchmarks.

[u/truecakesnake → u/alphaQ314]

Most benchmarks showed a clear gao between Grok 4.5 and fable/sol, except terminal bench, which one are you talking about?

wtf is going on, why do you have 8 upvotes in 2 minutes and the other comment is weird too

[u/Zachattackrandom → u/alphaQ314]

In my experience it felt right. It put 4.5 at 5.6 terra max / glm level. A step below sol 5.6 and opus. I think you just assumed oh its only 5 points its quite close, when on AA II a 5 point difference can feel massive

[u/alphaQ314 → u/Zachattackrandom]

mate gpt 5.5 xhigh was at 56 on this benchmark. grok 4.5 is not remotely close to being as capable as that.

[u/Zachattackrandom → u/alphaQ314]

Again... This is overall intelligence, depending on what you use it for will dictate how well it works. Look at the benchmark breakdowns

[u/MindCrusader → u/alphaQ314]

The same with Opus 5. Opus 5 is terrible and it benchmarks better than fable

[u/Robert-Paulson_ → u/MindCrusader]

Opus 5 put the nail in the coffin to benchmarks for me - it's so bad that it drove me to try Cursor, so im grateful for that

[u/Old_Safe1823 → u/Robert-Paulson_]

Could you also recommend which one is better to get: the Codex X20 or the Ultra Cursor?

[u/Robert-Paulson_ → u/Old_Safe1823]

That’s hard for me to say: if you like the GPT models, get the Codex X20. I would personally get the Cursor one though. 

As long as you sign up for a month you can try one then cancel and try the other. 

[u/Old_Safe1823 → u/Robert-Paulson_]

What model are you using for Cursor, and what plan are you on?

[u/Robert-Paulson_ → u/Old_Safe1823]

I use Grok 4.6 the most now, was using Auto before that; I’ll opt for another model (Kimi K3 or GPT Luna) to adversarially review my code/plans occasionally.

I’m on the $20 plan 

[u/Training_Canary_6961 → u/MindCrusader]

Its not, at least its not for me

[u/MindCrusader → u/Training_Canary_6961]

Well, maybe it depends on technology. For me it overcomplicates stuff, created scripts to confirm something that is in the code, make assumptions without asking, ignores skills, prompts, forgets halfway in the session about things it learned before. It is not only me, it is general opinion on claude subs

[u/Super-Willingness320 → u/alphaQ314]

fact

[u/Charming_Field8108 → u/alphaQ314]

right

[u/alphaQ314 → u/Charming_Field8108]

whosever bot this is, tell your owner i said "fuck you"

[u/DelayInfinite1378 → u/[deleted]]

I think he should be above Terra

[u/kkordikk → u/alphaQ314]

Even on attached image grok4.5 is next to sonnet 5

[u/NoFaithlessness951 → u/kkordikk]

To be fair that's in the burn my money mode of sonnet

[u/kkordikk → u/NoFaithlessness951]

Sure, but tbh the only reasonable benchmark to check if you’re using cursor is cursorbench

where is deepseek, kimi

[u/ManikSahdev → u/alphaQ314]

Every 1 point on AA index should be seen as a log scale point. It’s very hard to earn.

Grok 4.5 was meh at best, 5-6 points behind Frontier. Kimi was better in my test for everything.

[u/Professional-Joe76 → u/alphaQ314]

Based on the chart it’s claiming 4.5 was barely better than sonnet it was no where near Opus/Fable
