Same couple. Three different answers.
We gave Claude Opus 5.5 the same couple three times: 61 and 59, $1.48M saved, retiring next year. Each time it wrote a brand new (and different) model from scratch, and took about five minutes. Appleseed answered in seconds.
Test run Oct 4, 2026. Claude Opus 5.5 writing its own simulation from identical household details each try.

“I'm 61 and my wife is 59. We have $1.4M saved, a paid-off house, and spend about $90k a year. Can we both retire next year?”
“I'm 34, make $95k, and have $135k saved. Can I retire at 55? What if I buy a $400k house in three years?”
“I'm 47 with $2.5M invested, $900k of it in Nvidia stock. What happens to my plan if the stock crashes?”
