Opus 5.5 and GPT-6 Astra simulate a hydraulic press crushing ice
Opus 5.5 (about $88) and GPT-6 Astra (about $45) each ran 7.5 hours on a hydraulic-press-crushing-ice physics animation; the author finds the ice still unrealistic but Opus clearly better.

When AI can simulate this properly, Skynet is here 😅 Claude Opus 5.5 ($88) vs GPT-6 Astra ($45) estimated API cost, ~7.5 hours each A hydraulic press crushing a block of ice, real physics, from scratch Honestly expected more from both, ice is still too hard for AI, but Opus was clearly better Worth twice the price?
