I revisited the image from the end of this blog in the newer models plus GPT (low and high). Which do you prefer? (1st grok is low. 2nd is medium, same with GPT) Also, if you haven't already, please clap my blog 😁 https://budgetpixel.com/blog/something-old-is-new-again-revisiting-prompts

Grok i typically just use low. Its good enough. Havent tried 16:9 ver much. If it behaves like GPT. Then med + 2k at 16:9 should be better. As GPT is bad for 1k 16:9 medium. (No idea why)

Unleashed

I rarely even try low, but I agree it seems to have won out here. I need to get out of the mindset that more credits=better results.Nice set, and great comparison.
