Great. Now let me use the subscription outside Claude Code.

Great that they listened! The improvement in communication style looks fantastic. Opus 5 was insufferable and I was on the verge of cancelling my subscription.

Use it now as much as possibles. In a week or so it will start to suck as Dario turns the knobs to nerf it.

Evidence for this?
theplumber 17 hours ago||
Evidence is my experience. I think someone documented it as well, it was a top post here.

I don't think there was any real evidence posted.

A few months ago Anthropic did confirm that a bug was degrading the experience late in the release cycle - but beyond that, nothing.

Why would anyone trust anything Anthropic says about its products?

> Because Opus 5.5 is comparable to Claude Mythos 5.1 in biology and cybersecurity, we’re deploying it with safeguards similar to those on Claude Fable 5.1

Great so good luck using this for any low-level embedded or operating system development (unless you really, really like Opus 4.8 and want to be greeted by its familiar face after a few minutes of work!)

Yup. As unusable as Fable 5.1, for assembly on 80s 68k personal computer platform. Awful.

What happened to "slowing down"?

They're slowing down token usage, not the path to regulatory capture.

Slowing down only makes any sense if you can coordinate a slow-down for everyone.

That's just false.

Less companies involved means less pressure to go fast.

Ah yes, they should just cease to exist, giving OpenAI - the champions of AI safety - control over the future of humanity. Fantastic suggestion!

Dario found himself in the prisoner's dilemma.

Which is one of those fun things that didn’t actually exist back when we took it for granted that our fellow person was operating under some kind of moral or ethical framework, which pretty much everyone was until the economists told us that wasn’t rational, because it turns out it’s an evolutionary advantage to operate under an ethical or moral framework because it allows the kind of coordination which facilitates better collective outcomes, which everyone knew until the economists came along to tell us we were wrong and in fact it was rational not to do so and suddenly we had the prisoner’s dilemma.

On the other hand, there's research suggesting that the most optimal behavior for the best outcomes (based on the famously dependable economist style of analysis in a vacuum) is to practice the moral/ethical framework but to also engage in tit for tat - ie, assume everyone means well but respond proportionally when they don't.

is OPUS 5.5 still not reading CLAUDE.md, failing to follow told tasks, inventing and hallucionating, just refusing to read files ("read the whole file" -> read 2-lines -> infere its wrong -> destroy the codebase), needing constant babysitting just because its so UTTERLY DUMB! i cant imagine going back to OPUS 5 - i'll rather jump out of the window as to use it EVER AGAIN!!
