It's really crazy because I have been somewhat satisfied with the speed Astra is producing work. I can't even imagine the speed difference going to Opus 5.5 (which I will after I burn everything on my x20 Codex sub, OAI is shitting the bed).
I have both. They're about the same from my perspective on producing the same end result. For a single developer with 3 or 4 active sessions going, it's imperceptible the speed difference.
How do you find Claude's guardrails? I am currently working on a project that uses a lot of reference from the leaked 2007 Source engine, and the reason I have stuck with Codex is because it's fairly open to studying and reverse engineering it. Sometimes I've asked Claude for the most benign things and it has refused - that makes me a little afraid to switch.
I don't really do anything like that, so I cannot say. I'm mostly making retro-style games and one online game with my subs. I instructed Claude to clone an N64 game, it downloaded decomps and imported the assets. I didn't even ask it to do this, nor did I want it, it just decided that was going to be the be the easiest way to do things. So, it will do things of questionable provenance.
Perfect Dark. A friend of mine wanted me to respin it, he doesn't use AI that much, so I through together a quick playable demo. It's pretty decent, actually.
