I have two A100s and have been playing with local models for years. There's definitely moments where they are quite impressive, but small context sizes and unreliability become immediately obvious.

> For those of us a bit crazy, we are running KimiK2.6, GLM5.1

Yes, those can compare to Opus, but you can't run those unquantized for less than $400k in hardware.

They all still fall short of Opus 4.6, definitely though. They are good but fail on extremely complex tasks, in contrast with a frontier model that will keep on trying until it succeeds or exhausts the solutions space.
