You’d like to substantiate that? I’d love to have someone pull the curtain back and learn by whom, if that’s the case.

Edit: or perhaps not, seems like 3rd party benchmarks aren't as positive.

It will probably take a few days/week for some in depth benchmarks to start popping up. The IBM article has this image showing that it's supposed to be a bit ahead of GPT OSS 120B for at least some tasks (horrible URL but oh well)

Seems like a fairly nice way to approach this (as long as it can also be disabled in the options). Heck, might as well have reverse image search context options for all the search engines that support something like it.

I think people will hate it somewhat because the older style and assets mixed with more modern lighting and textures (moreso, often AI upscaled ones), will look... kinda shiny and overall a bit off, same as happened with the GTA remaster, o
