All the benchmarks in the world don’t matter if the subscription forces you into a walled garden of slopcoded apps. I’ll stick with Codex and, increasingly, open source SOTA models.

I'm a kernel engineer. Fable 5 refused all my requests, falling back to Opus 4.8. My wife is a chemist. Her experience wasn't much better.

I'm curious about this because I've had Fable decompile games and help me understand what's going on inside the game itself and it never complained. I'm not sure what it takes to trip the "safety" guards but digging into game code and data files doesn't seem to be a barrier at all. I've used CC to build some personal game mods a few times now. Once for a game with no modding capability explicitly exposed.

Oddly not much to trip it. I once ran “touch AKAMAI.md” and then had Claude run git status and it fell back to Opus as if I had just broken into the pentagon itself.

Maybe it's more like you asked a lieutenant to check the weather forecast for you, and it went away and sent back a sergeant in its place.

My work is mostly on the Nvidia b200, which apparently gets flagged as non-standard.

Opus 5 works, but sometimes I do wonder if it's surreptitiously trying to sabotage the efforts -- possibly deliberately, but more likely by something like Fable's initial launch, which did come with secretly degraded performance when detecting kernel work. Anthropic was open at the time that such a mechanism existed, but disabled it due to backlash. More likely than not, this is just paranoia on my end...

I notably had an issue that it wouldn't work on a "remote execution" (running a command over SSH) coding problem until I did a sed to remove the word "execution". Incredibly dumb. I'm not doing any murders. Easiest to just switch to the Chinese models.

I think a lot of CTOs that signed enterprise contracts with Anthropic are going to be in for a rude surprise.

It's one thing to generate some code and ship it, but it's another when your developers don't understand said code and it brings down production. If the model refuses to assist debugging the problem because it triggers some safety mechanism, you might be fucked.
