Claude Sonnet 5.5 has just dropped. And if you haven't tested out already, it's actually a really impressive model. I'll show you exactly what we've built with it, how it works, how it compares versus other models. Here's something we actually built with it earlier. So this is like a 3D world, as you can see right here. We can basically use to self-navigate, or we can actually control it ourselves. But look at the quality of this, like the colors, the design, I mean, Opus 5.5 was a huge step up, but bear in mind that Sonnet 5.5 is cheaper and also faster than previous versions, but is getting really quality outputs, really good quality outputs. Let me show you another example right here. And by the way, if you want to get all these prompts are inside the AI Profit Boardroom, if you want to know exactly how to use it, how to get the most out of this stuff. Here's another example.

So this was kind of like a 3D world, as you can see right here, kind of like a motion design system, right? And as we look through this, it's like a 3D book that Sonnet 5.5 has generated. And I only show you this to show you how good it is at design. That's the thing to focus on right now. So you might be thinking, well, Julian, I don't really want to create a 3D book, mate. To be honest with you, that's not really my cup of tea. And I'd agree with you. I'm not creating 3D books all day as well. But my point here is that the quality of the design, the output, everything else is really, really good. And we can also change the camera angle on this as well, as you can see. So I just want to show you the magic of this is unreal. Like a lot of people are actually saying this is one of the best models in the world. Now, bear in mind, this is cheaper than Opus 5.5. If you use it on your subscription, you're going to get more out of it versus your normal Claude subscription. But it's really, really powerful. Here's another example. I have never seen 3D designs as good as this. Like, with any AI model, let alone, for example, Astra 6 or something like that. Like, look at this. How cool is this, right? We can zoom in, zoom out. We've got this 3D world. We can go inside here. We can actually walk as this person. But the quality and everything is just, like, so good. I mean, at this point, it kind of makes you wonder, where are video games going? You know, what are websites going to be like in the future? What are apps going to be like in the future? It feels like we're just going to create our own. We're just going to create our own worlds, as you can see, because how cool is this? And there's no bugs in here. It works super nice. It looks fantastic. And these are all, like, one prompts. One of the things that Sonnet 5.5 is very, very good at is using something called 3JS. Now, along with that, it's also really good at creating details. So if you have a look, for example, at this Neon Monsoon 3D umbrella system, right? We've got over 650 towers built inside there. So the level of detail of this is just like, it's outrageous. It is outrageous. It's so good. And I'm not, like, hyping it up or anything like that. Just I want to show you what it's like because it's really, really cool. By the way, if you want to get access to this guide, everything else I'm showing you, link in the comment subscription or go to theairpodforbomb.com. Now, you might be seeing, OK, you know, how do these compare? So if you have a look, for example, here, we can actually compare the differences inside this guide, and it will show you the differences, right? So Opus 5.5 versus Sonnet 5.5. Huge difference right there, right? Depending on the amount of input tokens or output tokens you're running through, there is a big, big difference in this. So one thing as well as really good at is these motion design videos, as you can see right here, like the quality of this is super nice. It looks fantastic. It looks beautiful as you can see. The same for this, right? This is kind of like a story 3D motion video as you can see.

I mean, that looks better than anything most people would animate, right? And it was just fully done with Sonnet 5.5.

Now, if you want to see somebody even call her, you can do that yourself. So what you can actually do is you can basically replace your whole editing team, right? So if you look at this, for example, we can basically use a combination of hyperframes with Sonnet 5.5 to create beautiful outputs like this, right? And also the other cool thing about this is that when we're using it, we can actually use something like BloTato to post for us. So here's an example of a post we just created, right? This was done with Sonnet 5.5, as you can see, and it can post with BloTato MCP directly to our account. Looks fantastic, beautifully edited, and it was all automated using a combination of Sonnet 5.5. Now, the other thing I would say here is like the quality of it is far better than almost anything I've ever seen. Now, it's also really good at creating websites. So if you look, for example, this whole guide, by the way, was created by Sonnet 5.5. But also if we scroll down here, and you want to see some examples of how you can use it for like web design, check this out, right? Like 3D website with animations, beautiful text, beautiful font, and it's all plugged into one amazing setup. So it's really, really good at design, as you can see right here. Looks super nice.
