Users Urge Opus 5 to Match Fable Quality at Accessible Price
haider1 · x · 2026-07-20
Users commented that Anthropic's Opus 5 needs to deliver Fable-level quality at the price of Sonnet 4.6, rather than Sonnet 5. Sonnet 5 already consumes more tokens than Opus 4.8. With Anthropic boasting a strong research team, market competition is vital; if OpenAI pulls too far ahead, the landscape could become less consumer-friendly.
