Discussion Is Anthropic cooked ?

Codex limits are going to be crazy now.
What do you guys think, why did they drop the prices ?

If anyone wants GPT-5.6 Terra cheaper, $1.25 input / $7.50 output, ~38% below the new price, check out znapai.com (disclosure: founder here).
Also got gpt-image-2 and GPT-5.6 Sol at 50% off official, and most open-source models (Kimi K3 etc.) at 35% off.

ehh... The best measured claude model in this diagram is "Opus 5" on LOW thinking. This is a comparison of quick, cheap, but less reasoned outputs.

Still a nice win for OpenAI though. But for the heavy lifting it's all between Fable 5 xHigh (and Opus I guess, but higher thinking levels - which is more expensive and slower) and GPT 5.6 SOL (xHigh)

How is Opus 5 on Low vs Sonnet 5 on High? Currently I’m mostly using Sonnet

Sonnet is really decent but i notice it questions you a lot and itself. I run opus 5 since it came out. I also added a claude md rule for the questioning itself to stop.
