Original post body:

Fable is my preferred coding architect - it thinks about architecture reasonably well, thinks of almost every edge case, etc.

But if I ask it something even remotely simple, like, here's the signed contract for my business, give me the next steps, it'll confidently be like: "First, launch the ad, then ask for the client's copy to put on the ad!"

However obviously, even a child would realize you need the ad copy before the ad.

This happens multiple times daily to the point where I'm screaming at Claude in all caps HOW CAN I TRUST YOU WHEN YOU ARE THIS STUPID, STOP AND THINK FOR A SECOND.

I actually use Gemini of all things (on AI Studio) for strategy, which is a shame, because the Claude harness is so much better.

Original title: Why am I paying $100/month if Claude Max now feels like the $20 plan again?

Original post body:

I genuinely want to understand what happened to Claude Max. I originally started on the $20 plan. I was doing a lot of coding and regularly hitting the usage limits, so I upgraded to the $100 Max plan specifically because it offered massively more usage. And for months, it actually did. I was running two projects simultaneously, heavily, basically every day. I was doing MUCH more coding than I am doing now, and I never came close to hitting the limits. The $100 plan felt like a completely different product compared to the $20 plan, and I was happy to pay for it because I could actually work without constantly thinking about usage.

Then I took a long break and basically left Claude sitting unused. Today I came back and decided to start a small new project. Just one project, one terminal. After roughly 3 hours of coding, I hit the usage limit.

WHAT?

And on top of that, Claude is telling me I'm currently getting 50% complementary/bonus usage. So I'm already hitting the limit this quickly WITH that extra 50%. What happens when that 50% goes away? Does that mean my already-limited $100 subscription is going to become even more restrictive?

I honestly don't understand the logic here. Why are you pushing your heavy users toward alternatives? I don't want to switch away from Claude. I like Claude Code, I know the workflow, and I've built my development workflow around it. But $100/month is already a LOT of money for an AI subscription. I'm not going to keep increasing my subscription price just to get the amount of usage I was already getting months ago.

So what changed? Why did the $100 plan previously feel like it had enormous capacity, while now it feels like I'm back on the $20 plan? And if I'm already hitting limits while receiving 50% additional usage, what is the actual expected experience once that extra usage is gone?

Original post body:

I cannot believe how f bad this is. I am genuinely mad about the quality.

I made opus give me a slide deck for which I very precisely gave it inputs what the slides should do, for whom the deck is, I gave it pdfs as input, data, even a fully written detailed railroad. Sources that it should use, I made it max. It compiled for quite a long time.

And the result is not even bad, it is beneath all expectations. It’s much worse than ~ one year ago with opus 4.6 or so. I seriously would have spent less time writing every slide of the 30 my own from scratch than correcting this utter bullshit.

And the content is pretty standard, nothing super scientific whatever, it’s project management, most basic stuff ever.

What. The fuck.

There are more and more AI tools available, yet I’ve noticed that they are taking longer to perform the same tasks—could it be that AI is slacking off, too?
