Read excerpt
Anthropic’s own advice for its new Opus 5.5 model comes down to three words: let it work. Say what “done” looks like, delete the “think carefully” lines, and get out of the way. This week, the Confluence team took that advice and handed the model whole jobs to see what came back.We open on the resources worth your time: Anthropic’s guide to effort levels (Low through Max, each with a real cost in time and usage) and Zvi Mowshowitz’s case that Opus 5.5 should raise your ambitions.

Confluence read it, found it compelling and alarming — and then asked you to read something else.The newsletter set its usual four or five items aside. In this episode, our AI hosts sit with that choice and the two pieces behind it. First: An Alien Mind, an ess
