That kind of benchmark is a lot more reliable for models published before the benchmarks; models published afterwards have more opportunity to "study to the test". That's especially a concern when a company explicitly uses its score on that benchmark as a marketing point.

Well no we have the anecdotes of all the HN folks which I trust many, many times more than a benchmark.

lol, you can continue trusting anecdotes from internet. Industry prefers more scientific methods.

No, I do not take these benchmarks seriously and for good reason. They're benchmarks. The only thing that matters is the user's direct experience of the product. And Phind isn't there.
