just started using codex. claude is just marketing machine and benchmaxxing and only if you pay gazillion and show your ID you can use their dangerous model.
Just use codex. A company that has not released any open weights models and goes after banning accounts and suing companies is not really the kind of company I want to give my money too. And gpt5.4 is the best model out there. Some people overthink on personality but I just want good code.
ignoring gpt 5.4! I feel bad for people who have not even tried it. for the same 20$ I pay to openai and anthropic, I get significantly more from openai
they dont change the model weights (no frontier lab does). if you have evals and all prompts, tool calls the same, I'm curious how you are saying performance decreased..
