Opus 5.5 + Claude Code Just Got INSANE (I'm Not Vibe Coding)

From the creator

This is what running AI businesses actually looks like day to day: Claude Code + Opus 5.5, digging into every model and every API I use, and making Harbor better AND cheaper at the same time. In this session Claude Code found that GPT-6 Luna is both cheaper and better than Gemini 3 Flash for my workloads, so I moved every remaining agent in Harbor over to it in one prompt. Per 1M tokens, Luna is $0.10 input and $0.50 output, against $0.50 and $3.00 for Gemini 3 Flash. I also moved Harbor's Cmd+K Copilot onto Sonnet 5.5, which is 33% cheaper and better. And I'm not vibe coding. I plan everything, read everything and check everything. That's AI augmented coding, and with Opus 5.5 it feels like a different universe.

AI Maker Residence at KOKO

The third AI workshop taught by our legendary teacher, Nick Sarafa. In one of the last events we did an asset manager raised an additional £25M on their fund within a space of 9 months. This is a full-day hands-on training workshop for purposeful co-creation with AI using Claude Code. Imagine having access to hundreds of billions of dollars of computing power and knowing exactly how to make it work for you through the power of super intelligence. One person did.
