Awesome! It matches my experience over the last few months. Btw I‘d love to try out Wiz if it were open source…

➡️ Codex emerged as the clear winner. Claude Code has performed well in resolving complex bugs previously, but it lagged behind Codex in this test. Mistral Vibe often generates compiler errors, suitable for routine tasks but lacks depth. As a “Go European” advocate, I hope to see improvement 🇪🇺🧠

3️⃣ Claude Code got on the right track after 7 attempts and had the epiphany 💡 after 11 attempts.
My usage limit expired significantly faster than with Codex.

2️⃣ Codex got on the right track after 4 attempts. The 6th one was its epiphany that fixed it:

💡 The audio engine was already fixed, but audio input permission was never requested (via Info.plist)

1️⃣ Mistral Vibe got on the right track right away but then regressed 📉. After 10 attempts it produced countless compiler errors. Its response:

“The file is in a severely corrupted state. At this point, the best approach is to revert.” 😂
So I did, but gave up after 16 prompts in total.

➡️ The prompt: “Fix audio recording on macOS, which results in an empty file. The log output is: …”
ℹ️ The project: A large C++ codebase that includes an audio engine.
🔄 The approach: After each change by the AI, I tested the app and provided it with the result (mostly “issue persists” and the log).

Today I conducted a real-world comparison of 3 AI coding agents:
1️⃣ Mistral Vibe CLI (devstral-2) 🇫🇷
2️⃣ OpenAI Codex (GPT-5.3-Codex-xhigh) 🇺🇸
3️⃣ Claude Code (Opus 4.6) 🇺🇸
I tasked them with a fix requiring audio API knowledge and out-of-the-box thinking.
Can you guess which one succeeded? 🧵

Just installed it, very useful! Should be Claude's default 👍 Thx!

Interesting, I didn’t know that 😮

I like it a lot, looks modern & urban 🏙️

Async for the masses, awesome! 👏 Looking forward to trying it out…

GalacticAR 🪐 I designed it from the ground up for Vision Pro 😄 apps.apple.com/app/id166679...

Mighty! FYI, Vision Pro App Store (and TV etc.) is not available in Austria yet. I’m using an extra account with an address in Germany and switch to download apps - cumbersome, but doable…

Good old 80s 🎛️ Love the track, great plugin, and great DAW 👍

11 years ago I lived in a town close to Schneeberg, but I never experienced it from above ✈️ So thanks for the view 👍

Definitely! Been using it for 2 years now. Best worth for your marketing money 😉

…but I was so hoping to see iPhone 42 some day 😉

I had similar thoughts back in the days when they introduced the MacBook Air. They co-existed for a long time, but in the end, today it’s just Air and Pro…

Interesting, at least half of the corrections already make sense without context 👍 I'll try auto-generated comments tomorrow...
Some UI feedback: The ↪️ button means "do not apply correction", I guess? A tooltip would be helpful.

Fantastic! I just translated additional content for the upcoming GalacticAR update to 5 languages in minutes using TranslateKit 4, what a time saver 😎

Thanks for this intelligent treat for the community 👌 That’s your *Kit number…?

Exactly. I never understood why some people are under the impression that all software, especially on a phone, must be free. A „soft“ product is still hard work 😉

I‘m still in ChatGPT (macOS app) land, without direct integration etc. How do you feed the AI your set of guidelines?

The Tanagra fragrance is hilarious, my all-time favorite 🤣🖖

But there‘s hope, as long as some parents raise their children to think about the greater good. Everyone should be reminded that Earth could be the only planet that features life, maybe in our galaxy, maybe even in the local group. Although I crave for another solution to the Fermi Paradox… 🌍
