Argon is tied for first at worst.

Who is "we"? Google is the least benchmaxxed.

I’m talking from experience. I’m run a software factory building open source alternatives and Argon is the worst model. Wrecked multiple codebases. But every use case is different. If you’ve found success in yours, use it.

I’m surprised it had time to “wreck multiple codebases” in the few days it’s been out

What you don't one-shot rewrite your entire codebase every time a model comes out?

[theturtletalks → dieortin]

I use it in my software factory and it made the applications worse. I didn’t push the changes. I just reverted them.

Astra still outperforms Argon for me. And with a lot more quota too.

I hope Google can catch up to OpenAI. The more competition the better.
