Imagine Anthropic gives you Opus of 6 months ago but at much higher speeds and much lower cost (that they might or might not pass on). Would you use it?

- tyre 22d agoYes, this would basically obviate Sonnet and Haiku. If you consider them 1 and 2 generations behind, respectively (that's not really what they are), you can still get a ton out of those older chips. Not to mention people still use older Opus versions happily. (In part because they don't like the new Opus but still, the cost effectiveness is a huge boon.)
- user43928 22d agoGPT 5.6 Luna is already rather fast at 300 tokens per second, performs better than Opus 4.6 from what I know, and is very cheap. I don't know why anyone would use Haiku.
