alt Hacker NewsInteresting, even if we were to ignore the cache-hits, reads and output, the reasoning cost (aka test time compute) per task should remain a fully comparable metric - it went from $1.25 (Fable5) to $1.48 (+18.4%) for an improvement significantly lower than 18%.
I would expect the benchmark scores to be nonlinear near the top, as the easier tasks get solved and the harder ones are left over. So going from 10 to 15 would be easier than going from 60 to 65.
I only take the Intelligence Index value roughly though. Considering they put Opus 5 (High) at the same level as Fable 5 (Max), I don't trust it that much.
