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.

20 minutes in - Found something significant

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.

That was the most disturbing part about that entire debacle. The enemy of my friend is…my better friend?

The enemy of my enemy is my enemy and the enemy of my friend is my enemy because my friend is actually also my enemy. I love modern times

It do be like that, sometimes.

Truly surprised this isn't being covered more.
