Finally a model I can relate to. congrats anthropic on discovering overthinking from first principles
Replying to @claudeai
At its default effort setting, Opus 5.5 delivers frontier results for a fraction of the cost per task, often beating other models running at their highest settings. It also generates output more than 30% faster than Opus 5.

For every matchup, we ran five searches using @p0’s advanced mode: 1. the matchup itself 2. news, injuries and storylines 3. matchup previews 4. team strength, offensive/defensive efficiency and roster changes 5. preseason previews and season expectations We deduplicated the results and gave Jev the results as context

We used portfolio Kelly criterion to size bets against a $100 bankroll, maximizing expected log ending wealth. Using Jev’s probabilities, we evaluated all win/loss combinations, assuming independent games and no ties. We priced contracts at the robinhood ask + a 2¢ fee allowance, with a $1 payout on a win and $0 otherwise. We optimized over whole contracts with a $3 minimum per selected position.
