动察 Beating AI News Flash: Anthropic releases its new-generation lightweight model Claude Haiku 5.5, focusing on low cost, high speed, and Agent tasks. Compared with Haiku 4.5, the new model shows major improvements in coding, computer operation, and professional knowledge tasks, with some evaluations surpassing GPT-6 Luna. Anthropic says this is the company's fastest and most capable small model to date.
Official tests show that Haiku 5.5 reaches 72.4% on the OSWorld 2.1 computer operation benchmark, higher than GPT-6 Luna's 48.9%, while the previous generation Haiku 4.5 was only 15.7%. On the GDPval-AA professional work evaluation, the new model scores 1,620 points, also exceeding GPT-6 Luna's 1,437 points. Coding ability has improved significantly as well, rising from 0% in the previous generation to 39.2% on Terminal-Bench 4.0, surpassing GPT-6 Luna's 16.4%.
The price cut is even greater. For requests with no more than 100,000 input tokens, Haiku 5.5 charges $0.1 and $0.5 per million input and output tokens respectively, both 90% lower than the previous generation. Beyond that length, it charges $0.5 and $2.5 respectively. Considering changes in token consumption for actual tasks, Anthropic estimates that the average operating cost drops by about 75%.
Haiku 5.5 also adds adjustable reasoning intensity to the Haiku series for the first time, allowing developers to trade off between performance and cost. The model is now available through the Claude API, AWS, Google Cloud, and Azure, and is suitable for batch summarization, information retrieval, browser operations, and executing subtasks for large Coding Agents.
