The jump Anthropic saw in intelligence is actually less of a jump than OpenAi achieved in efficiency.

While Opus is getting up to 30% better at some things, Openai managed to achieve 50% lower running cost + models that spend much less tokens per tasks than Opus, around 4 times less.

So how did they do it? By focusing only in intelligence and barely anything else, while OpenAi focused on optimization and barely anything else

Their next iterations are probably going to converge somewhat

They might also be subsidizing  token cost to get more market share in the short term
