• Multimodal Reasoning: This LLM is adept at integrating information from various sources, including text and images. It can analyze charts, graphs, and even interpret illegible handwriting, making it a powerful tool for tasks involving visual data interpretation.
• Code Generation: Although not its primary focus, Claude 3.5 Sonnet shows promising results in generating functional code. Benchmarks indicate good accuracy in handling basic coding tasks.

Weakness:

Limited Information: Due to its recent release, less information is readily available compared to established models.

2. ChatGPT 4o (OpenAI):  

An improved version of the popular ChatGPT, but still under development.

Strengths:

• Reasoning Capability: ChatGPT 4o has strong reasoning capabilities. It can follow instructions and draw logical conclusions. However, it may be difficult compared to Claude's 3.5 Sonnet for tasks requiring a highly nuanced understanding of user intent.
• Multimodal Reasoning: ChatGPT 4o is still under development. While it can handle some basic text-and-image tasks, it may not perform as well as Claude 3.5 Sonnet for tasks requiring deep visual interpretation.
• Code generation: ChatGPT 4o is a popular choice for programmers seeking assistance. It can generate functional code snippets and effectively identify errors in existing code.

Weaknesses:

• Falls Short in Following Instructions: ChatGPT 4.0 may struggle with tasks that require strict adherence to user directions as compared to Claude 3.5 Sonnet.
• Limited Visual Reasoning: It falls behind Claude 3.5 Sonnet in handling specific visual data tasks, although it can handle some visual data tasks.

3. Gemini 1.5 Pro (Google AI):

A powerful LLM struggling with strict instruction adherence.

Strengths:

• Reasoning Capability: Gemini 1.5 Pro exhibits strong reasoning abilities in general but may struggle with tasks requiring strict adherence to user instructions. This can lead to responses that deviate slightly from the intended meaning.
• Multimodal Reasoning: Similar to ChatGPT 4o, this area is under development for Gemini 1.5 Pro. While it can handle some basic multimedia tasks, it currently falls short of Claude 3.5 Sonnet in advanced visual reasoning scenarios.
• Code Generation: Code generation is not necessarily a core strength of Gemini 1.5 Pro. While it may offer some basic assistance, it might not be as adept as ChatGPT 4o in this area.

Weakness:

Instruction Adherence Issues: Currently, it struggles with strictly following user instructions, potentially leading to unexpected outputs

Choosing the Right LLM for Your Needs
