I know the paper specifically calls out Opus 5.5 and Opus 5, but I can’t see different versions of Sol, or Astra. I think the difficulty in comprehension was mostly an Anthropic problem… partly because Anthropic…

Wow, 16 PRs? No wonder GitHub keeps going down.
“When implemented correctly” is probably what people are complaining about. Opus 5 started adding a bunch of comments to code, even when instructed not to, and for very simple changes where the comment itself was longer…
I believe there are studies about how the environment and who you are with changes your perception of food as well (it was some Radiolab podcast episode I believe). So you will never again have such a great sandwich,…
On a similar topic - since you said "I always use" - is it true that nearly everyone at Anthropic is using Fable and that's why Opus 5's style of speech was not really noticed as problematic by Anthropic employees?
I agree that the LLM behaviors between Anthropic and OpenAI are different enough now that it can lead to different experiences. I absolutely hate talking to Opus but don’t mind Sol and Astra. My guess is Martin used…
A lot of the more sane people I work with have decided that it's futile to try and have stopped working with Opus (we can't use Fable at work due to data retention policies).
The $50USD Bluetooth speakers "NATTBAD" gave us a good chuckle. https://www.ikea.com/us/en/p/nattbad-bluetooth-speaker-yello...
RIP. I had frequently used ALT + 0151.

They have a {{currentDateTime}} in the prompt which is interesting for something that gets prefix cached. Hopefully they are handling that properly :)
Interesting, they say "focused, brief, and concise" but not "clear". I find the Claude responses these days are too dense, which contributes to being overwhelming. It's not the number of words used that overwhelm me.…
Hm? I'm saying that the AI firms used to have the philosophy of "ok this kitchen knife is dangerous but we'll catch the murderers" on older AI models. But now, the AI firms think that any average person could send a…
For a kitchen knife this was okay, but the AI firms think that they’ve built a drone that’s the size of a phone but can fly 100km and can hold a kitchen knife. It might be used to assassinate someone before others can…
Timing doesn't seem odd to me. It just seems like https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiple_discovery which I've noticed happen in many areas.
Fun article, but this didn't actually answer the "why" question for me...
Or be like me and just mulch the clippings (yes it looks uglier that way - and yes I think of mowing the lawn as a chore)
So wordy.
The article's EEG images don't seem to suggest this is due to two brain hemispheres.
Yup, and I had seen it in the Opus 4.5 soul document as well: https://gist.github.com/Richard-Weiss/efe157692991535403bd7e... In the future, I expect different models from different firms behaving differently will…
And the fact that this article’s story is basically “I prompted Fable with a goal and went to sleep and the model got it done” is telling me that the latest models have gotten past the need for Superpowers… even the…
Yeah I enjoyed the first bit, then “the one exception” made me go “hey, Claude does this to me all the time” and then it ruined the article for me.
To be fair, I saw that, I saw the “skip” link, and thought “that’s ok, I’ll just scroll down” on my phone. It took SO many scrolls to get to the point. So the frustration is justified.
That was fun, and the script on github looks hand-written which is refreshing after having been reading AI-written code for months. I have 120k photos in iCloud that I'm sure have duplicates (I exported my library to…
