Maybe I'm wrong and Opus 5 is a real unlock?

#223Their communication is confusing. They say "Opus 5 is not more capable overall than Fable 5", but their blog post proceeds to list how much better Opus 5 is than Fable 5 on __most__ benchmarks listed. Then system card goes on to "Its AI R&D capabilities are comparable to those of Claude Mythos 5", which is supposed to be fable minus restrictions.

#224I'm not sure what to make of this graph[0]. It shows medium as the most effective thinking mode by far for frontier code. It's the only case that I saw going through the system card where more reasoning effort meaningfully negatively impacted the resulting eval. I know sometimes max efforts show a small dip, but this is substantial. I wonder why in the world that is? [0] https://imgur.com/a/Nv8V7Ry

#225Great that there's a new model but they could fix their existing infra. We're considering dropping our Claude Team sub cause it's unusable recently. Constant bugs, dropped sessions, issues switching models, http errors. It's becoming ridiculous
And memory leaks.

#227It's great with Codex.
I still find that LLMs tend to not know how to compose larger ideas but on the scale of small ideas or short form well defined tasks like small scale debugging/performance engineering it's safe to say that they are now superhuman.
Re: Claude Opus 5
#228I think the most important thing here is not absolute performance. It's that organizations now have access to a Fable-ish model without Fable's 30-day data retention requirement[0]. > "Consistent with prior Opus models, Opus 5 does not have data retention requirements for general access."[1] On the Opus model release page, the reason why Fable doesn't have an ARC-AGI score is because of that retention policy[2]. 0: h…
Also the cost per task. It appears to be significantly cheaper, cheaper than sonnet!
