OpenAI launches GPT-5, creates battleground for Opus 4.1 and Grok-4
New Delhi, Aug 8 (UNI) OpenAI revealed GPT-5 the advanced AI model, making a new battleground of the search spectrum race with Claude Opus 4.1 and xAI's Grok-4. GPT-5 comprises advanced reasoning functions compared to its predecessors. Users can get more accurate responses and seamless integration across multiple modalities. Moreover, this version can also interpret images, hold voice conversations, and give real-time responses with more emotional intelligence. The much-anticipated launch of OpenAI points towards the broader ambitions of the AI giant to dominate the AI search spectrum. GPT-5 will outpace the popular Claude Opus 4.1 in features, including image and video generation, while Opus 4.1 has an edge in handling coding benchmarks and large context windows. Moreover, GPT-5 is also expected to compete with Grok-4 in the areas of reasoning, speed, and multimodal functionality. Currently, Grok-4, which is the flagship model of xAI, is doing very well in logical analysis, code manipulation, and natural language generation. Some search industry experts pointed out that GPT-5 is expected to lead the race. This tool is tested on a recent benchmark test, real-time analysis, and multiple user feedback. GPT-5 appears as a well-rounded option for both professional and personal use due to the recent integrations. UNI SAS GNK

It's also available through tools for developers like Amazon Bedrock and Google Cloud's Vertex AI Additionally, the price for using Opus 4.1 is the same as it was for the previous version, i.e., Opus 4. Pricing for Claude Opus 4.1 starts at $15 per million input tokens and $75 per million output 4.1 by Anthropic advanced the state-of-the-art coding performance to 74.5% on SWE-bench Verified that tests real-world coding problems, along with in-depth research and data analysis to GitHub , Opus 4.1 has enhanced its capabilities in multi-file code refactoring. Multi-file code refactoring means improving or reorganising code that is spread across multiple files while keeping the programme's behaviour AI coding startup Windsurf reported that Opus 4.1 delivers a one-standard-deviation improvement over Opus 4 on their junior developer benchmark, showing roughly the same performance leap as the jump from Sonnet 3.7 to Sonnet was founded in 2021 by a group of former OpenAI employees. The San Francisco-based company is generating about $5 billion in annualised revenue, Bloomberg News has reported. In May this year, Google- and Amazon-backed Anthropic introduced its next-generation AI agents, Claude Opus 4 and Claude Sonnet 4, with coding and advanced reasoning facing stiff competition with giants like OpenAI, Anthropic's chief product officer Mike Krieger told Bloomberg that it was focussing on its own progress rather than competitors like OpenAI. The priority, he said, is delivering value to current a separate development, Anthropic's Claude is now listed on the General Services Administration (GSA) schedule on Tuesday, making its products readily accessible to US federal government departments and agencies with pre-negotiated pricing and terms that comply with federal acquisition regulations.

Anthropic rolls out Claude Opus 4.1, its most advanced model for coding
Anthropic on Tuesday, August 5, introduced its most advanced model capable of software development – the Claude Opus 4.1. According to the Google-backed AI startup, the new model is an upgrade to Claude Opus 4 and is capable of agentic tasks, real-world coding, and reasoning tasks. The company revealed that it has plans to roll out larger improvements to its models in the coming weeks. The new Opus 4.1 is currently available to paid Claude users in Claude Code. Besides, Anthropic is also offering it on its API, Amazon Bedrock, and Google Cloud's Vertex AI. However, the Opus 4.1 is priced similar to its predecessor. Apart from real-world coding, the model excels in in-depth research, data analysis tasks, especially those that require agentic action and attention to detail. Claude Opus 4.1 performance When it comes to performance, the new Opus 4.1 comes with noticeable coding upgrades which boosts its score from 72.5 per cent to 74.5 per cent on SWE-bench verified. The model has also demonstrated improvements across math, agentic terminal coding (TerminalBench), GPQA reasoning, visual reasoning (MMMU) benchmarks. According to Anthropic, users have cited real-world gains saying that the Opus 4.1 excels at tasks like multi-file code refactoring and identifying correlations in codebases. Earlier this year, Anthropic had introduced Claude Opus 4, which the company claimed to be the world's best coding model offering sustained performance on complex, long-running tasks and agent workflows. Claude Opus 4.1 is also available on GitHub Copilot Enterprise and Pro+ plans. Users can also access the model in GitHub Copilot Chat on Visual Studio Code, and GitHub Mobile through the chat model picker. Meanwhile, the model in Visual Studio Code is available in ask mode. 'Claude Opus 4 will remain available in the model picker, but it will be deprecated in 15 days,' GitHub said in its blog. With its latest AI model, Anthropic seems to be intensifying its efforts to stay relevant in the competitive AI landscape. The latest upgrade comes days ahead of OpenAI's next big release. The Sam Altman-led company is expected to announce GPT-5, and it will likely shape how AI models of big players fare in terms of coding and software development.

Anthropic releases Claude Opus 4.1 with improvements in coding
Anthropic AI has released Claude Opus 4.1, the successor to Claude Opus 4 with improved coding, reasoning capabilities and agentic tasks. The AI firm claimed that the AI model 'improves Claude's in-depth research and data analysis skills, especially around detail tracking and agentic search.' According to a blog posted, Opus 4.1 advances their state-of-the-art coding performance to 74.5% on SWE-bench Verified, a benchmark that measures the capabilities of AI models to solve real-world software engineering tasks sourced from GitHub. This is compared to the 72.5% achieved by Opus 4. The model beat rivals including OpenAI o3 and Gemini 2.5 Pro at several benchmarks like Agentic Coding and Multilingual Q&A. Meanwhile, the other AI models outperformed Opus 4.1 at other tasks like visual reasoning and high school math. Opus 4.1 has been made available to paid Claude users ($20 each month for Claude Pro and $100 each month for Claude Max) and in Claude Code and also via API, Amazon Bedrock and Google Cloud's Vertex AI. The pricing will be the same as Opus 4. Anthropic had unveiled Claude Opus 4 towards the end of May. Just last week, the firm confirmed that they revoked OpenAI's access to Claude Code after the Sam Altman-led company was found to be using coding tools ahead of the expected GPT-5 launch. A recent report by 'The Information' had revealed that OpenAI's GPT-5 was rumoured to improve coding capabilities to compete with Anthropic's Claude which has become popular among coders.

Anthropic unveils more powerful AI model ahead of rival GPT-5 release
The update is part of a shift toward doing more incremental improvements to its coding models, in addition to larger model releases. — AP Photo/Richard Drew, File Anthropic is releasing a new version of its most powerful artificial intelligence model as rival OpenAI nears the long-awaited launch of its GPT-5 system. Anthropic is set to announce Tuesday the release of Opus 4.1, an update to its high-end AI model that the company claims is more capable at coding, research and data analysis. The new offering is also better at fielding complex multi-step problems, the company said, positioning it as a more effective AI agent. The update is part of a shift toward doing more incremental improvements to its coding models, in addition to larger model releases. "In the past, we were too focused on only shipping the really big upgrades,' said Anthropic Chief Product Officer Mike Krieger. "It's better at coding, better at reasoning, better at agentic tasks. We're just making it better for people.' Founded in 2021 by a group of former OpenAI employees, Anthropic has tried to distinguish itself from rivals with advanced models and a greater emphasis on responsible AI development. Anthropic's Claude software has also excelled in coding, a key revenue growth area for the company. The San Francisco-based company is generating about US$5bil (RM21bil) in annualised revenue, Bloomberg News has reported. Anthropic is also in the midst of finalising a deal to raise as much as US$5bil (RM21bil) in a new funding round at a valuation of US$170bil (RM718bil) valuation, Bloomberg previously reported. But Anthropic faces significant competition. Alphabet Inc.'s Google and OpenAI have introduced features designed to help programmers streamline the process of writing and debugging code. OpenAI executives have also been publicly teasing GPT-5, with reports suggesting it could come as soon as this month. "One thing I've learned, especially in AI as it's moving quickly, is that we can focus on what we have – and what other folks are going to do is ultimately up to them,' Krieger said when asked about OpenAI's upcoming release. "We'll see what ends up happening on the OpenAI side, but for us, we really just focused on what can we deliver for the customers we have.' Anthropic's new model, released two months after Opus 4, is billed as more adept at coding. It can better navigate large codebases and be more precise in making modifications to code, the company said. The upgraded model also scores two percentage points higher than its predecessor on the popular coding evaluation benchmark, SWE-Bench Verified, Anthropic said. Customers such as coding app Windsurf, which was recently acquired by Cognition, and Rakuten Group Inc., have been seeing faster and improved coding task completion with the model, according to customer statements Anthropic shared. – Bloomberg
