Sentiment on Gemini 4 Argon stays negative on X
An observer's read of X sentiment: Grok and Claude Opus 5.5 are well received, OpenAI is souring, and Gemini 4 Argon's release hasn't turned Google's mood around.
AI/SI users are incredibly fickle, especially here on 𝕏. Sentiment can shift dramatically in a matter of days, and yesterday's favorite can quickly become today's disappointment. I follow this space very closely, and I've noticed some interesting trends in how users currently feel about the major AI players: 🟢 Grok Bot: Overwhelmingly positive sentiment. Users are raving about it, and the user base is growing at an astonishing rate. 🟢 Anthropic / Claude: Very positive. Opus 5.5 has earned a reputation as the best coding model, and developers seem genuinely impressed. 🔴 OpenAI: Sentiment is turning increasingly negative. Users are frustrated with usage limits, disappointing coding performance, and persistent Codex bugs and usability issues. 🔴 Google / Gemini: Surprisingly negative sentiment, even after the release of Gemini 4 Argon. The new model hasn't really turned the mood around. These are my observations of the current mood on 𝕏, not an objective ranking of model capabilities. And if there's one thing I've learned from watching this space, it's how quickly everything can change. One breakthrough release, one disappointing update, and the entire narrative flips. I'm curious whether your own experience matches what I'm seeing.
