Yep you're right, thanks for catching (sorry for the ninja edit!)

Ah you're right I totally misread that!

Interesting observations:
* Llama 3.2 multimodal actually still ranks below Molmo from ai2 released this morning.
* AI2D: 92.3 (3.2 90B) vs 96.3 (of Molmo 72B)
* Llama 3.2 1B and 3B is pruned from 3.1 8B so no leapfrogging unlike 3 -> 3.1.
* Notably no code benchmarks. Deliberate exclusion of code data in distillation to maximize mobile on-device use cases?
Was hoping there would be some interesting models I can add to https://double.bot but doesn't seem like any improvements to frontier performance on coding.

If you've tried others, would love to understand if there's anything you didn't like specifically (I'm one of the creators for https://double.bot)

Ah interesting! I'm building https://double.bot (ai assistant vscode extension) and someone asked about VSCodium but I didn't realize there's a open marketplace for that specifically.

> Maybe something's timing out with the longer o1 response times?
Let me look into this – one issue is that OpenAI doesn't expose a streaming endpoint via the API for o1 models. It's possible there's an HTTP timeout occurring in the stack. Thanks for the report

Just added o1 to https://double.bot if anyone would like to try it for coding.

Some thoughts:
* The performance is really good. I have a private set of questions I note down whenever gpt-4o/sonnet fails. o1 solved everything so far.
* It really is quite slow
* It's interesting that the chain of thought is hidden. This is I think the first time where OpenAI can improve their models without it being immediately distilled by open models. It'll be interesting to see how quickly the oss field can catch up technique-wise as there's already been a lot of inference time compute papers recently [1,2]
* Notably it's not clear whether o1-preview as it's available now is doing tree search or just single shoting a cot that is distilled from better/more detailed trajectories in the training distribution.

If you're open to trying new AI coding assistants, would love if you can give https://double.bot a try! (note: I'm one of the creators) The main philosophical differences is that we are more expensive and are trying to build the best copilot with the technology possible at any given time. For example, we serve a larger, more accurate, and more modern autocomplete model, but it does cost more to serve. We also do a lot of somewhat novel work in getting the details right, like improving the autocomplete model to never screw up closing brackets, and always auto-close them as if you typed them.

Yes, I built the extension. I actually also just went to send another message asking what the first msg was just to double check I didn't have a bug and it does know what the first msg was.

definitely not an articulate request, but the point of using these tools is to speed me up. The less the user has to articulate and the more it can infer correctly, the more helpful it is. Other frontier models don't have this problem.
Llama 405B response would be exactly what I expect

Yes, there's a few things wrong:
1. If it assumes typescript, it should do `as const` in the first msg
2. If it is python, it should be something like https://x.com/WesleyYue/status/1816157147413278811 which is what I wanted but I didn't want to bother with the typing.

I'm building a ai coding assistant (https://double.bot) so I've tried pretty much all the frontier models. I added it this morning to play around with it and it's probably the worst model I've ever played with. Less coherent than 8B models. Worst case of benchmark hacking I've ever seen.

Just added Llama 3.1 405B/70B/8B to https://double.bot (VSCode coding assistant) if anyone would like to try it.

Some observations:
* The model is much better at trajectory correcting and putting out a chain of tangential thoughts than other frontier models like Sonnet or GPT-4o. Usually, these models are limited to outputting "one thought", no matter how verbose that thought might be.
* I remember in Dec of 2022 telling famous "tier 1" VCs that frontier models would eventually be like databases: extremely hard to build, but the best ones will eventually be open and win as it's too important to too many large players. I remember the confidence in their ridicule at the time but it seems increasingly more likely that this will be true.

I've been using it in https://double.bot (vscode coding copilot I'm hacking on) and it's been pretty great so far. We have support for all the top models (gpt4o, deep seek, opus, etc) so I regularly like to switch between them especially if I see a challenging problem. So far, sonnet 3.5 has the best quality and is the one I use by default.
---
Some thoughts:
* Will be interesting to see what we can build in terms of automatic development loops with the new computer use capabilities.
* I wonder if they are not releasing Opus because it's not done or because they don't have enough inference compute to go around, and Sonnet is close enough to state of the art?
