Er, what? We've had open models that can outperform ChatGPT 3.5 for several years now, and they can run entirely on your phone these days. There is no metric by which 3.5 has not been exceeded.
Not in the creative writing I care about. I've been looking for years and trying new models practically every month, including closed, hosted models. None of them approach the quality of the logs I have from that original release.
