Astro Polo(@astropol0):damn Gemini 4 Argon really got Google employees dropping Opus.... DeepMind engineer just said he doesn’t reach for Opus anymore for any work after trying Argon (he used to when 3.8 Flash was their top model) can’t wait for Argon to be available for the rest of us...

I work at Google DeepMind and yes I have tried the model known externally as “Argon”. I can say this: I don’t reach for Opus anymore for any work (like I did when 3.8 Flash was our top model). I hope that it will soon be generally available for everyone to enjoy!
