Opus 4.6 is still my preferred model for work, so this is great to hear.

I can't wait for open models to take over in all categories.

Sounds like this is the year for coding.

It looks possible open models will. I never expected the reason would be political/legal rather than technical.

The CEOs spent so much time talking about putting everyone out of work and how "unsafe" their models were that the government stepped in with export controls.

They did this to themselves.
