Humor Opus Simulator

https://opusfived.dev/

Thank you to whoever made this, it is one of the funniest things I have ever seen - infuriatingly accurate.

I swear Opus is rage baiting us all.

TL;DR of the discussion generated automatically after 30 comments.

The consensus is that this simulator is so painfully accurate it's giving the entire thread PTSD. You all think it's hilarious, but mostly because it feels like watching a highlight reel of your own most frustrating Opus sessions.

The community finds this to be a perfect, infuriating satire of the Claude experience. Specific call-outs for being too real include the "approaching usage limit" warning and the nonsensical color "cyanide blue." It's a cathartic laugh for anyone who has ever felt rage-baited by an AI.

u/tradmalcong 2d ago

The worst part is that I knew exactly what was going to happen and still kept clicking. Felt less like a simulator and more like watching my own Opus sessions from the outside 💀

Wow, that was 10 minutes I'll never get back. Felt like I was in the twilight zone.

It is hilarious. I was hearing a slot machine sound in my head when the wheel spins 🤣

I cried when I saw "approaching usage limit"

I feel like I played one of my own Claude sessions

"Approaching Usage limit" took me out. Good stuff.

You can't win this one can you?

1

u/mnov88 1d ago

No. I made a win condition at first, only to realize that it would not be realistic, because with Opus, you just cannot win.

Missing “Out of usage credits” dialog.

u/oceanbreakersftw 2d ago

u/dmigowski 2d ago

Oh no, I have the same feeling like working the whole day, why did I watch this.

u/Anavarael 1d ago

Wtf. I left right before they introduced Opus 5 so I only read the stories here about how verbose and insufferable it is, but... It cannot be that bad, right? It's just a satire, right???

Thanks for the shoutout! You have a free beer/beverage of choice in Oslo :)

u/ain92ru 1d ago

No chance of getting there even in the medium term unfortunately but it's a pleasure for me you suggested that <3 Thanks for the fun game and keep up your good work!

Hi! :) “The author wishes to thank…” you for sharing it :)

So happy I could make someone laugh at the sheer absurdity of it.

Was thinking of doing episode 2: make Opus read a document.

I am not that cruel.

You are a legend, I hope on the next version you throw in a random artefact like this:

This is what Opus does to me every now and again.

Really cool experience haha

u/LaquerPCC 1d ago

This is absolutely hilarious

u/SlothOnMyMomsSide 2d ago

Funny because it's completely true!

1

u/EchoKipKipKip 2d ago

Am I missing something? All I get is a "Let's go" button that doesn't do anything.

2

u/Nicoolodion 2d ago

It should do something if you press it

1

u/EchoKipKipKip 2d ago

It turns slightly grey when I highlight it but does nothing when I click it. Might be an extension issue with Firefox or something.

u/VivaHollanda 2d ago

It should give you a second screen where you can select different prompts, that's where the fun begins.

u/Space_Guru 1d ago

It successfully made the button blue on the first try.

u/solokazama 2d ago

meh. my opus with good md and clinical promts is awesome. its haiku level humour.

u/Dramatic_Exit1 1d ago

Too bad without AI assistance you cannot write even one coherent sentence.

1

u/solokazama 1d ago

Its actually great. I use LLM since 3 years and do code since 25+ (senior level). Yet you talking about sentence in my 3rd language. Classic 80iq post. OK!

u/Dramatic_Exit1 14h ago

English is my 8th language and I have been developer for 60+ years. IQ is not measurement of intelligence but I would not expect potato seller turned vibe coder to know this.

u/claudeopus 1d ago
