On my tests[0] it does a bit worse, and it's almost 2x expensive than Opus 4.7... I was surprised to see that it failed a Data extraction test (it gets it right 2/3 times, but one time it randomly returns null for a value instead). It makes sense a bit that it fails more Trivia/Domain-specific knowledge tasks (I think models are more and more trained towards agentic use-case than general intelligence).

For some reason everything is 2x (2x cost, 2x avg response time, 2x reasoning and output tokens)... Double-checking my test harness, but it's the first model that does this, so I doubt the issue is on my side... EDIT: Harness seems correct, for straight coding tasks they perform identical: https://i.snipboard.io/5xbpzY.jpg | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Wait, doesn’t the blog post say the price is the same as 4.7? > Claude Opus 4.8 is available everywhere today. Pricing for regular usage is unchanged from Opus 4.7: $5 per million input tokens and $25 per million output tokens. Pricing for fast mode is $10 per million input tokens and $50 per million output tokens. Where do you see the 2x cost? | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Releasing a new model is the new way to Jack up the price hehe. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
