Astro Polo(@astropol0):Serious question though… why do these AI labs always feel the need to quietly nerf a model that people are actually enjoying just so they can push the next one harder??? Opus 5.5 shouldn’t be getting the silent treatment tbh anyway fable 5.5 is closer then we thought....

Claude Opus 5.5 just took a big drop on NerfBench. Yesterday it was scoring above launch. Today it's at 94.2%. GPT 6 Astra: 98.0% Sonnet 5.5: 100.9% GPT 6.1 Sol: 106.7% 94.2% is still inside normal variance, so we can't call it a nerf yet. But we're watching Opus 5.5 very closely.
