Claude Opus 4.8 edges out GPT-5.5 in intelligence, lags in coding

A recent analysis compares Claude Opus 4.8 to GPT-5.5, finding Opus 4.8 to be marginally more intelligent overall and the leading agentic model. However, GPT-5.5 demonstrates stronger coding capabilities. In terms of performance, Claude Opus 4.8 is slightly cheaper than its predecessor, Claude 4.7, but remains the most expensive frontier model. It consumes more tokens than GPT-5.5 but offers double the end-to-end response speed. AI
