I made a benchmark for handwriting recognition for a project while keeping line breaks and errors (grammar, spelling). Sonnet absolutely dominates it since a good half a year. 5.6 did not change that for me. This should also translate to better ocr.

You're the second person to mention handwriting. I think it might be handwriting-specific; perhaps Anthropic has a better corpus for this.

I really wouldn't know, though. Anthropic models barf out copyright issues for my use case, so I'm unable even to benchmark them. It's a common problem when you're scanning public domain books. Mine are reference texts often cited.
