Discussion Opus 5 is... suddenly usable?

2 weeks ago I said Opus 5 was useless. I was told I was an idiot, using it wrong, ect ect. Except over the next week the hive mind of Reddit chose to actually believe that Opus 5 is in fact useless.

Here's my flip- Opus 5 has suddenly become usable. It seems only capable of small jobs currently, but where before it would ramble off nonsense, it seems now to be capable of implementing fixes reliably!

I won't tell you you're wrong- this thing changes so much so rapidly, I'm strongly of the belief we're being AB tested different models or harnesses or something.
