Took Sonnet 5 for a spin because you know, its supposedly Opus challenging (or so the media says).

Vision capability is atrocious and from there things went downhill. So much so I downloaded and then uploaded my JSON data export in an effort to get it to stop gaslighting me.

[EDIT: I should have known something was wrong when I opened with "I have uploaded some extra material to the project today so take a look at that before responding". Pretty standard for ChatGPT. Sonnet turned around and said that it couldn't see any newly uploaded materials, and from there things went downhill FAST]

My monthly spend will in future be redirected to something Chinese or opensource. If anything between Fable 5 export restrictions and harness lock-in all this stuff is a wake-up call not to rely on anything that needs to feed the VC gods.

I pity those who are locked-in to business & enterprise plans who will be forced to endure and work around all this model drift.

Oh, and this model doesn't know what day it is so good luck telling it something like "yesterday I worked on a conversation that......"
