This is money

Introducing Claude Opus 5. It's a thoughtful and proactive model that comes close to the frontier intelligence of Fable 5 at half the price.

We had a team of agents rebuild SQLite from its 835-page manual. It created a replica in Rust which passed 100% of a held-out test suite. Interestingly, cost varied 15x depending on which model mix we used.

Grok 4.5 is leading on actual professional work In Snorkel AI’s benchmark, Grok 4.5 combined with Grok Build was tested against GPT 5.5 and Claude Opus 4.8 across nearly 2,000 expert-created workplace tasks involving real documents, spreadsheets, presentations and professional analysis Grok outperformed both GPT 5.5 and Claude Opus 4.8 overall, while leading by even wider margins across several high-judgment fields: • Education: 58% • Legal work: 40% • Quality assurance: 37% • Healthcare: 35% It also recorded the lowest failure rate across every error category Snorkel measured, including missing analysis, incorrect recommendations, poor structure and missing sources The most important result is not simply that Grok completed more tasks It produced better professional deliverables, made fewer critical mistakes and provided more specific, actionable recommendations where competing models often returned generic work Grok 4.5 is proving that real-world usefulness matters more than benchmark scores alone

extremely unprofessional. if kimi wants to make it as a frontier lab, they need to act like one: perhaps silently route people to worse models, and maybe write a blog post about the collapse of humanity

I was clearly wrong about Anthropic. They are obviously currently the leader in AI. No company has released a model as good as Mythos/Fable and they will undoubtedly have Mythos 2 ready soon. And I would never cut them off in a way that hurt them badly, even as a competitor. That’s not my style. Tesla open sourced its patents and we made the Supercharger network available to all competitors, even though we could have made it a walled garden. SpaceX launches competing satellite systems with no increase in price or use of unfair terms. Even my worst enemies can attack me on this platform. …
