It’s funny, R1 came out and matched 4o/o1 at the time, you could claim it was very slightly behind but it was basically even.

It’s been 6 months? Geminis big upgrade was 2 months ago and o3 even more recent.

It’s just funny that US companies just barely got ahead the last couple months and already it’s a “drawn out narrative” that they aren’t ahead.

For all we know R2 drops tomorrow? If it’s ahead or even how are we supposed to think about the narrative?

IMO it’s not really that much of a stretch to say they’re fairly close together. I’d want to wait 6 more months where the US stayed significantly ahead before I’d be complaining about narratives. I know things move fast but that’s all the more reason to wait and see.
