开发者评 Argon(Gemini 4):强但贵,编码 Agent 仍落后
这位开发者总结 Argon 上手印象:比 Gemini 3 系列大幅提升,但推理成本极高、长程编码 Agent 任务仍落后于 Anthropic/OpenAI,开发者难迁移。
My read on the Argon rollout impressions: 1. A big improvement over the Gemini 3 family BUT 2. Clearly an EXTREMELY high cost/expensive model to serve, judging by the AI plan changes and user usage examples. This is a problem for model diffusion and attempts to gain share 3. Still well behind in the most important area: long run coding agent tasks, so developers won't switch. Benchmarks don’t tell story about extent of the gap. Developer impressions do. 4. Will fall much further behind as Anthropic and OpenAI release new models very soon and RSI virtuous cycle takes off for those two leaders.
