A new version of Claude, referred to as either Claude Sonnet 4.6 or Claude Opus 4.6, has been released and is reported to outperform other ai models, including Gemini 3 Pro and GPT-5.2, in various tests. However, there is conflicting information about the current status of these models, with some outlets mentioning different versions, such as Gemini 3.1 Pro and GPT-5.5. The release of Claude Sonnet 5 is also reported, which may offer similar performance to other Claude models at a lower price.
