It actually hasn't, it seems: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=50151775

Would place DS 4.1 1017 roughly equivalent to GLM 5.3 which means it's targeted to price rather than direct capability. Probably why they listed DS adjacent in the comparison table when according to their results more expensive models are beaten by it.

You do realize that there exist multiple Pareto frontiers, at least for every arbitrary combination of parameters for a given benchmark?

Obviously your marketing team is going to use the Pareto frontier where your model has improved the most and compares favorably against competitors.
