One prompt, four AI workflows: a bullet train scene for $19 to $131

Lummox sent the same train-scene prompt to four AI coding workflows. Kimi K3.1 produced the most cinematic render for $19 in 5 minutes, while Claude 3.7 Sonnet took 38 minutes and $131 to build a refrigerator-like train.

Claude Code really charged $131 to build a train that looks like a refrigerator on rails 😭

Meanwhile Kimi and GPT built an entire cinematic bullet train scene for $19 and $54

Same prompt, 4 AI workflows

The final bill

🥇 Kimi K3.1 : $19 / 5 min
🥈 GPT 6 Astra : $54 / 15 min
🥉 Blender MCP : $87 / 24 min
💀 Claude 3.7 Sonnet : $131 / 38 min

Kimi was almost 7x cheaper and 7.6x faster in this comparison

And somehow the cheapest result has the city lights, reflections and atmosphere you’d actually want in a cinematic render

bro imagine paying $131 two years ago just to invent the world’s fastest microwave
