I really, really don't find the Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index credible anymore. It's some weighted score of benchmarks, and benchmarks increasingly don't reflect how good a model is.
That should be obvious if you compare Gemini 3.8 Flash (which is an _excellent_ model especially for its price and TPS!! but 10min of prompting in any harness) will tell you it's nowhere near close to Sol/Astra.
But AA scores Gemini 3.8 Flash at 59, and Astra at 61.
