Anthropic Launches Claude Opus 5.5 Despite Slowdown Call
Anthropic released Claude Opus 5.5, its flagship AI model and the first in the 5.5 family, on September 22, 2026. It achieves the highest-ever score (58) on the Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index and leads six out of ten benchmarks, including outperforming OpenAI's GPT-6 Astra on Terminal-Bench 4.0. Priced at $4 per million input tokens and $20 per million output tokens (20% lower), it promises a 40% cost reduction for typical workloads, though savings depend on config. It is 30% faster, now defaults in Claude Code and the Claude app, and matches Claude Fable 5.1 on most tasks. Early tests show efficiency gains but also more concurrency issues and security test failures. Anthropic cites external safety evaluations, and OpenAI responded with GPT-6 Sol and Luna, priced ~50% lower and offering up to 90% cache discounts.
