Qwen 3.7 Max — Alibaba's "Agent Frontier" — challenges GPT-5.5 and Claude Opus 4.8 with 60.6% SWE-bench Pro, 91.6% LiveCodeBench, and a record-breaking 53.5% SciCode. At $7.50/1M output with Anthropic API compatibility. Full benchmark comparison, Tetris bot real-world test, and the verbosity tax explained.
From 33.4% Verified to 93.9% — Fable 5 breaks 90%. GPT-5.5's 47-day Terminal-Bench reign ends. Track 27 months of AI coding progress with new charts. Updated June 9, 2026.
32B active params vs 10B. $4.00/1M output vs $1.20. 58.6% SWE-bench Pro vs 56.22%. Kimi K2.6 wins on raw performance — but MiniMax M2.7 is the efficiency miracle: 94% of Kimi's coding score at 70% less cost, with only a fraction of the parameters. This is the battle between brute force and architectural genius.
0.2 points apart on SWE-bench Pro. Both open-weight. Both released in April 2026. But the similarities end there. Kimi K2.6 leads on coding (+11.1), agentic tasks (+7.8), and vision. GLM-5.1 counters with pure MIT license, Code Arena #3, and Claude Code compatibility. Here's the definitive comparison.
Claude Fable 5 is the new Python coding king (80.3% SWE-bench Pro). Updated June 9, 2026 with full Fable 5 benchmarks.
