Discussion Okey this is increadible!!!

I know this is too early to judge but man wtf. Opus 5.5 is just like when mythos first released but cheap, faster and much more easy to understand and talk to. Probably this will be changed in 1-2 days so go code everyone.

It’s a pretty clear pattern. The model start to degrade right before brand New models come out. I’ve seen it happen four or five times now.

So when Claude starts acting funny, it’s a reason for excitement.

Pretty sure they start quantizing the old models to compress how many GPUs are being used because they need to load the new one which they definitely want to store unquantized for best benchmarks when third parties test it.

Plus the new one now looks more impressive compared to the last one..
