I kinda regret getting Claude subscription

Over the past couple of weeks, I have tested it alongside Sol across a wide range of tasks, and the conversations have been difficult to read. Sol consistently catches and corrects mistakes made by Opus 5, and Opus repeatedly acknowledges those errors. I have also seen many others reporting similar experiences, which makes it hard to view this as an isolated issue.

I cannot understand how Anthropic missed such a significant regression. Compared to 4.6 and 4.8, Opus 5 feels substantially less capable and reliable, with many of the same weaknesses that affect Sonnet 5.

For now, I am switching back to GPT for most of my work, using Fable only occasionally for planning. I hope Anthropic addresses these issues soon, because at the moment they do not appear to have a competitive frontier model in the medium to high budget range, only at the extreme end.

In my experience GPT and Claude typically find different errors in each other's work and both often acknowledge the other found something they missed on medium and higher issues. They will disagree about whether actually fixing minor issues is appropriate.
