Claude just launched Claude Opus 4.6 . This is Claude s newest and most capable model so far. It s designed for deep reasoning, long-running agent workflows, and large codebases, with a 1M token context window in beta and stronger planning and code understanding.
Claude Code Channels let you control your local coding session from anywhere. Using MCP servers, you can bridge Claude to Telegram and Discord to push events, receive alerts, and reply to your terminal assistant directly from your phone.
Claude Skills are folders of instructions and resources that make Claude a specialist at your specific tasks. Package your team's workflows, from brand guidelines to data analysis, and use them across Claude apps, Code, and the API.
I am not a developer. I am a sales/business guy who gets an obscene amount of value out of ChatGPT. It remembers who I am, seems to give me better answers than Claude, and I have the impression that it s a leading model, whereas Claude is top 10 maybe top five, but not top three. With that said, all I hear online is that Claude is better on all fronts. It s better for coding, more ethical, and will last longer than ChatGPT. I even hear it has better models. If that s the case, why do I feel like it pales in comparison to my ChatGPT experience? Why does my own experience not align with the broader appeal I see for Claude every day? Is it because I don't code or am I just using it poorly?
This is the first release in Anthropic's 3.5 model family. Sonnet now outperforms competitor models on key evaluations, at twice the speed of Claude 3 Opus and one-fifth of the cost. The team pulled together something really special here.
