Too late, personally after how bad 4.6 was the past week I was pushed to codex, which seems to mostly work at the same level from day to day. Just last night I was trying to get 4.6 to lookup how to do some simple tensor parallel work, and the agent used 0 web fetches and just hallucinated 17K very wrong tokens. Then the main agent decided to pretend to implement tp, and just copied the entire model to each node...

Introducing a new upgraded slot machine named "Claude Opus" in the Anthropic casino.

You are in for a treat this time: It is the same price as the last one [0] (if you are using the API.)

But it is slightly less capable than the other slot machine named 'Mythos' the one which everyone wants to play around with. [1]

For anyone who was wondering about Mythos release plans: > What we learn from the real-world deployment of these safeguards will help us work towards our eventual goal of a broad release of Mythos-class models.

Oh look it was too powerful to release, now it’s just a matter of safeguards.

This story sounds a lot like GPT2.

I'm not sure how much I trust Anthropic recently.

This coming right after a noticeable downgrade just makes me think Opus 4.7 is going to be the same Opus i was experiencing a few months ago rather than actual performance boost.

Anthropic need to build back some trust and communicate throtelling/reasoning caps more clearly.

I don't have much quality drop from 4.6. But I also notice that I use codex more often these days than claude code

> Opus 4.7 uses an updated tokenizer that improves how the model processes text. The tradeoff is that the same input can map to more tokens—roughly 1.0–1.35× depending on the content type.

caveman[0] is becoming more relevant by the day. I already enjoy reading its output more than vanilla so suits me well.
