My experience is that Opus can definitely write decent code, but it incurs tech debt and adds unneeded complexity.
replydid you actually verify that it's output in those scenarios is good ? in my experience opus has been a disappointment and constantly trailing behind actually solving hard problems versus the OpenAI models.
I'll say that both have terrible writing style though.

replyYes, in the sense that it reproduced results in the paper or known solutions obtained by other methods. In fact, Opus is very good at checking it's own work in my experience.
