I tested Crouton Alpha via api and the results are weird and interesting. I think this is the most efficient model that can get a task done very quickly. I'm talking about total tokens, not just speed, it thinks way less, it could be not thinking at all. This is a floating island windmill test, a basic test and it made everything i wanted, but soo many mistakes. The roof is inverted, the windmill clips, water ripples are outside water, but trees, clouds, birds, the island and camera animation are all smooth. It took only 6400 tokens to build this, of which 200 tokens are for thinking. Eff
