Luna is meant to compete with Haiku. What tasks are you seeing it equal Opus on?

You'd be surprised at what Luna can do, especially on xhigh or max. It's capable of working overnight, usually productively, just like Sol.

Haiku 4.5, on the other hand, is comparable to performance to Gemma4 31B (with working tool call formatting) in my experience, and Gemma4 strongly wins on vision and multimodal.

According to the Artificial Analysis benchmark graph in the article, Luna can now outperform Sonnet 5 and Opus 5 low at ~4-10x less cost

Per Artificial Analysis:

- Haiku: 30 points

- Luna Medium/High/Xhigh/Max: 38/46/49/51 points

That's a massive difference:

- 30 points is Gemma 4 31B territory

- 50 points is GLM-5.2 (744B) territory.

Could OpenAI be running a different model for high+max?

[wahnfrieden]

No OAI is just very good at reasoning models

[tosh]

luna is way better than haiku 4.5

I use Luna a lot (over 1T tokens since it came out) and I'd rank Luna (high/xhigh) on par with Sonnet 5, without hesitation.
