We put Opus 5.5, Opus 5 and Fable 5.1 through ten lawyer-grade prompts and 120 blind verdicts. They finished four verdicts apart, in a loop. Only price separated them.

Regulation (EU) 2026/1744 entered into force on 27 July 2026. High-risk duties moved to December 2027 and August 2028, and the 2 August 2026 transparency deadline did not move. Every change, and what it means for a firm that uses AI.
