Claude Opus 5 shows performance drop at highest setting on coding benchmark

A recent analysis of Anthropic's Claude Opus 5 has revealed a peculiar performance anomaly where its highest setting scores lower than the setting immediately below it on the Frontier-Bench v0.1 coding evaluation. This observation contradicts the expected trend of higher settings yielding better results. The issue was highlighted by Anthropic's own published chart, which detailed the performance metrics. AI
