5.4 vs 5.3-Codex? Which one is better for coding?
- vtail 7mo agoLooking at the benchmarks, 5.4 is slightly better. But it also offers "Fast" mode (at 2x usage), which - if it works and doesn't completely depletes my Pro plan - is a no brainer at the same or even slightly worse quality for more interactive development.
- esafak 7mo agoFor the price, it seems the latter. I'd use 5.4 to plan.
- embedding-shape 7mo agoLiterally just released, I don't think anyone knows yet. Don't listen to people's confident takes until after a week or two when people actually been able to try it, otherwise you'll just get sucked up in bears/bulls misdirected "I'm first with an opinion".
- awestroke 7mo agoOpus 4.6
- jcmontx 7mo agoCodex surpassed Claude in usefulness _for me_ since last month

- Someone1234 7mo agoRelated question: - Do they have the same context usage/cost particularly in a plan? They've kept 5.3-Codex along with 5.4, but is that just for user-preference reasons, or is there a trade-off to using the older one? I'm aware that API cost is better, but that isn't 1:1 with plan usage "cost."
