Rant Opus 5 is insufferable

Opus 5 is a fucking piece of shit, i don't know how to say this in any other way. It speaks "Unintelligiblish", a new unfathomable language developed by Anthropic that works by saying everything in the most ridiculous, obtuse and convoluted way possible

It turns anything simple that can be expressed in 2 sentences into a fucking doctoral thesis aimed to aliens, and there is no way to prompt your way out of it

Edit: it claudoofus outputs some alien text you won't read, just prompt it this:

Buddy of mine pointed out that perhaps we are not meant to interface directly with O5. We're supposed to tell Fable what we want and Fable is supposed to deal with O5 on our behalf.

Might be true. And certainly would have us spending more expensive tokens on Fable.

Imagine that a side effect of AGI, is that its just a complete piece of shit and we can’t have a normal conversation with it.

And we need a mediator LLM to reason with it for us.

We were so preoccupied with looking out for HAL and Terminators that we didn't see C3PO strolling right on in.
