The speaker recommends retrying cost-sensitive tasks with Opus 5.5 because its improved cost efficiency may enable more progress than earlier, less efficient models.

“And so I think things that like maybe you wanted to experiment with something and like cost was something that was front of mind for you, right, and like token efficiency and these sorts of things, like that kind of might have held you back from like really like firing it off and like letting a model run.”

“I think that's the...”

“Those are the sorts of problems you should return to now with Opus 5.5 'cause I think you'll be able to get just like a lot further than you maybe otherwise would've been able to with, um, models that were less cost effective.”
