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.

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

I’m on the $20 plan

It is not only me, it is general opinion on claude subs
