I'm very suspicious of these same price model launches. It feels like they're benchmaxxed so they can put everyone on them and reduce their compute costs behind the scenes. If the model were genuinely better why wouldn't they charge more for it? Charging the same for something better is a race to the bottom.
Opus 4.7 wasn't noticably any better for me, I still use 4.6 because it's cheaper.

- cute_boi 4mo agoModels are already expensive. Increasing price means losing customer. And, I think GPT 5.5 is much better at opus these days.
