kimmonismus revisits his earlier take: GPT-6.1 Sol is very efficient and good for many tasks, but he currently prefers Anthropic's Opus 5.5 and Sonnet 5.5 — he argues Anthropic has brought back Claude's signature "taste," with current Claude models feeling fast, efficient, and simply very good. He's also looking forward to Fable 5.5. Follow-up engagement suggests this is far from an unpopular opinion.
