Sonnet 4.6 Vs Opus 4.6 - How I Use Them (No "Trust Me Bro" Stats)

ericbefore.com I've been gone for a bit — thank you to everyone who checked on me in the comments. I'm back. Anthropic just released Sonnet 4.6 and I've been using it on real projects since drop. This isn't a benchmark video. It's how it's changing my actual workflow and when I think you still need Opus 4.6. Anthropic just released Sonnet 4.6, and in this video, I dive into why traditional "ai benchmarks" and "ai model comparison" stats might be missing the point. While many will focus on raw numbers, I highlight why Sonnet 4.6 is a compelling "claude" offering that performs comparably to Opus, often at a lower cost. This is significant "ai news" that makes me question the value of "claude vs chatgpt" comparisons based purely on scores.
