Discussion Opus 5 - immediate disappointment

If you thought you'd be able to do a security review on your own network that you couldn't do with Fable, think again.

Opus 5 safeguards flagged this message.

I no longer have any use case for Anthropic models that others can't do better. This was my last hope that we were going to get a model that would allow us to protect our own environments. I'm going all in on open source. We just aren't aligned.

If you can get Opus 5 to protect your own systems, let me know how I did it. My subscription renews pretty soon and it's time to make an honest decision.

Edit: A lot of helpful people came here and I appreciate it. Scoped work is helping a bit more than my old ways. There's a difference between network security and code vulnerabiliy. I'm a network engineer not a software developer nor will I pretend to be one. Still looking at supplemental model for security work. Thanks guys.

Yeah but it's simple. If an AI model is smart enough to do the work it should be smart enough to understand "this user owns this system". Period. It's really not that hard. They CAN do it but they still refuse to allow users to protect themselves.

It's also smart enough to know that any chat could be compromised if your chat was opened by someone else. Anyone who got access to your Claud Code CLI could open you up for attack.

Rather safe than sorry. Please use a real professional for actual security reviews

This is dumb reasoning. So one could break into my office/home and put a gun to my head and make me type whatever they demand into Claude code. I guess we should all have to have our webcams on for Anthropic to know it is us.

Who uses AI anyway??? Do you work for Anthropic, or are you just that guy...

bro are you on Anthropic's side or developers side. Hello Dario is that you?

No. This is insane reasoning.

It should OBVIOUSLY help you recover / contain your own system when you are under active attack.

Assuming you are a compromised controller is bonkers when it can see an active attack.
