Some of the benchmarks subtract score for doing tasks that are out-of-scope or beyond what the user explicitly asked for, and the higher effort levels often result in this.

In almost any intellectual domain, including coding, the models are already ahead of the average human. But instead, we compare them to the very best humans, which almost no one on the planet has access to.
$20 for a lot of access to better-than-average is a world-changingly good deal!
Thus, a distinction needs to be made between viewing material to _learn_ and viewing material to _verbatim repeat_.
It's not illegal to read the New York Times and then start giving paid advice based on what you learned, as long as you don't repeat the text verbatim.
Plus, 238 miles was its maximum trim, compared to 310 miles for the Tesla Model 3.
So let me be even more clear, since you keep missing the point: the Tesla Model 3 was the first mass-market long-range EV with a truly fast charging rate and extensive public fast charging network, making it the first truly mainstream EV.
You can get an effectively-zero hallucination rate with the right setup already.
> but if you are talking about something reusable that takes off and lands vertically
No, I am talking about something that takes off and lands vertically after boosting a first stage to orbit.
Suborbital is 100x easier.
But Tesla Cybercab, taking paid rides in Austin right now, is Level 4. And has no LiDAR. You can fly to Austin and take a ride on it right now if you don't believe me!
The Nissan Leaf models before the Tesla Model 3 had a maximum range of 107 miles.
The Tesla Model 3 had a range of between 220 to 310 miles, depending on the trim.
This is what made the Tesla Model 3 revolutionary. It was the first to be mass market with long range.

Experts said it wouldn't work. Then they said okay maybe it works, but the economics won't. Now they say nothing.
As for frontier AI model: let's see Grok 4.8 before drawing any conclusions there.
People said this about every one of Musk's big ideas, from Falcon 9 landings to Model 3 mass production, Starlink, and FSD.
Russia does not have access to this, and as with all western tech companies, AI providers do what they can to prevent Russian usage of their products at all.
As for open-source models, Russia's electricity grid is under severe strain with the Ukraine war, and only recently has it started building out serious sovereign compute capacity.
By the time we have "one-million-person cities" on the moon, synthesizing water or hauling it from icy asteroids will not be a problem.
