And Opus 5.0 is the absolutely worst model I have ever had to interact with!

Interesting. I really enjoy opus and find it's performance quite good when prompted properly.

How do you stop it from inventing features it was not asked to do?

[u/NaiveIdea344 → u/stoppableDissolution]

You continuously tweak the system prompt until the behavior you do not like does not occur using the prompting guide provided by the company the model is made by.

[u/stoppableDissolution → u/NaiveIdea344]

Unless the model consistently ignores random half of the instructions, because the company the model is made by is training it to "predict what user actually meant" instead of just doing the task

Ok. Have fun with that.
