  • Given that Fable is a Sol-class model, should Astra not be compared to Mythos in those tests?

  • Astra seems to be really slow. Maybe it intends to read more context. But from my experience it is definitely slower than 5.6 sol when handling same tasks.

  • I ran a few toy benches comparing Astra with Sol

    and found Astra ~30% faster and at similar cost to Sol for the same outcome

    the token efficiency helps Astra even though sticker price is 2.5x that of Sol

  • Both OAI and Anthropic seem to have released a model that is slightly better but cost ~2x the previous iteration. Interesting play

  • How do you guys review AI-generated code ?

    In our team, frontend work is vibe-coded by the PO and merged as-is without review. Backend is coded by developers, using AI but in a slower, more controlled way.

    Recently, our PO has been trying his hand at vibe-coding the backend. I must say he is a smart guy, almost technical but not quite a developer. We've just been handed a burst of stacked PRs amounting for ~15k LOC backend. We do not quite know what do to about it.

    I know we are not the only ones in the situation. What's your experience and context ? What do you do ? What works for you what doesn't ?

  • Comparison was done in the scope of coderabbit AI code review tool, which sadly makes it practically irrelevant.

    My personal experience as a software engineer, and a former security researcher who did manual code audit, is that this code review tool has such poor results that it isn't worth the "noise" and friction it causes developers during C/I code review
