    Anthropic releases Claude Haiku 5.5, scoring 43 on the Intelligence Index

    Anthropic released Claude Haiku 5.5, which scores 43 on the Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index, up 26 points from the last Haiku release. Pricing is $0.10/$0.50 per 1M input/output tokens up to 100k tokens, rising to $0.50/$2.50 above that, but at max effort it uses about 162k output tokens per Intelligence Index task, roughly 3x GPT-6 Luna.

    Why it matters: The benchmark shows Haiku 5.5 scores well but uses far more output tokens than GPT-6 Luna, so cost per task matters beyond list price.
