I hate that I like GPT-5.5 storytelling more than I do Opus-4.7's

When it came to storytelling, Opus has been my go-to model for over a year now. Back then Opus 3 had been miles ahead from OpenAI models (anything else had been just plain embarrassing). Over that year it seemed like GPT was getting progressively worse while Claude improved. Just two weeks ago GPT-5.4 vs Opus 4.6 was almost unfair, mildly tinkered-upon Opus put out objectively good prose, while GPT was every bad AI story you've ever read on Facebook. Then last week came and 4.7 dropped. And I couldn't believe how absolutely horseshit it was at telling stories.
