Assumption: \"typical practitioner\" means a team shipping JSON APIs quickly, where docs/validation/ecosystem outweigh raw throughput."},{"model":"Gemini","reason":"Remains the premier choice due to its unmatched developer experience, offering automatic OpenAPI generation and seamless Pydantic v2 integration. The massive ecosystem and community support ensure it is the safest bet for the vast majority of production environments."},{"model":"Grok","reason":"Dominant default for new async APIs in 2026 due to async-native ASGI design, seamless Pydantic v2 integration for type-driven validation/serialization/OpenAPI docs, excellent developer velocity, massive ecosystem/mature integrations (esp.
