> GLM-4.5 Air, Qwen3 30b A3B, and Llama Scout

Are they good enough compared to Sonnet 4?

I’ve also used Gemini 2.5 Pro and Flash, and they’re worse. But they’re much bigger, not just 30B.

In my opinion? Qwen3 does live up to the benchmarks, it leaves Sonnet 4 in the dust quality-wise if you can get a fast enough tok/s to use it. I haven't tried GLM or Llama Scout yet, nor do I have a particularly big frame of reference for the quality of Opus 4.

You might be able to try out Qwen3 via API to see if it suits your needs. Their 30b MOE is really impressive, and the 480b one can only be better (presumably).
