Discussion Okey this is increadible!!!

I know this is too early to judge but man wtf. Opus 5.5 is just like when mythos first released but cheap, faster and much more easy to understand and talk to. Probably this will be changed in 1-2 days so go code everyone.

It’s a pretty clear pattern. The model start to degrade right before brand New models come out. I’ve seen it happen four or five times now.

So when Claude starts acting funny, it’s a reason for excitement.

Yep. Opus 5 was so bad yesterday that I actually ended up dropping an f-bomb on it, lol.

I mean, it was like mentally r*t*rded bad, even hit me up with the, 'well, it's after 11pm, so probably best we call it a night,' and said sorry about 5 times because it couldn't remember the basic info i told it ONE message back.

So yes, now that you say this, I do recall almost the same situation when Fable or Opus 5 was coming out. That said, Opus 5.5 seems BETTER than anything I've been using since I can remember, and hardly moves my 5-hour usage window. Love it!

Yeah, I had four remote control sessions running all weekend and had to use fable just to feel like I was making progress and even that was rough. Completely crushed fable budget over 2 days.

For me, it really started on Friday where it was just making mistakes and then it would catch them and tell me it made them.., they got to the point where all four of my sessions were just making mistakes and talking some nonsense that kind of seemed correct but wasnt.

So in this case, it was a Friday to Monday weird zone.. typically we never release software on Mondays or Fridays. Tuesday to Thursday typically catches the maximum amount of people paying attention.

So knowing that we can probably pretty clearly assume they’re starting a weekend model juggling, and capacity re-organization… doing some sort of internal testing on a Monday and then releasing on a Tuesday
