A user heaped praise on the rumored Opus 5.5, calling it the best model launch of the year: faster, cheaper, and better than Fable 5.1 while keeping the same working "feel," cheap enough to run in production, with much more tolerable rate limits — unlocking use cases previously out of reach. He claims OpenAI has been "on silent mode" since. Note: model names and release details are unverified.
