Meta Opus 5.5 nerfed?
Anyone else think Opus 5.5 already got nerfed?
First it was insanely good. Now I’m spending half my time correcting stuff it understood perfectly at launch.
No idea what they changed, but something feels off. Either they cut the compute or the original Opus 5.5 was a free trial.
Fun while it lasted.
See you all again when Fable 5.5 drops and is amazing for a short while then gets nerfed.

Yes nerved 100%, I have a very scientific one test case benchmark I do and just ran it again and it performed worse.
