I'm probably not alone but I didn't buy any of the doom or quake games for the storytelling or IP, I bought it for the engine. They were foremost a game engine company. Switching to UE5 now makes it compete on the same level as other UE5 games, and there's a lot of those already. Kiss of death for the company if you ask me.

if these ai companies want to be taken seriously as being productivity tools then they're going to have to stop with these ab tests and forcing unproven features onto everyone. it's bad enough that ais are inherently unpredictable in quality of output, but these kinds of changes just make things worse.

anthropic at least does have a latest and stable channel, as the other day they pushed something irritating that would skip question asking phase if you didn't reply in 60 seconds, and it broke my multi terminal workflow. like I don't know what their product people are thinking when they push this kind of stuff, but it made me switch to stable

absolutely solid, thanks!

accuracy hasn't been their priority for a while now - they just want people to click on ads

they said how they stopped writing code themselves a few months ago. it really shows.

It does cost more but I found the quality of output much higher. I prefer it over the dumbing of effort/models they were doing for the last two months. They have to get users used to picking the appropriate model for their task (or have an automatic mode - but still let me force it to a model).

thats it! thanks for digging it up

It's hard to say. Admittedly I'm a heavy user as I intentionally cap out my 5x plan every week - I've personally found that I get more usage being on older versions of CC and being very vigilant on context management. But nobody can say for sure, we know they have A/B test capabilities from the CC leaks so it's just a matter of turning on a flag for a heavy user.

someone did the math and posted it somewhere, I forgot where, searching for it again just provides the numbers i remember seeing. at the time i remembered what it was like on pro vs 5x and it felt correct. again, it may not be representative of today.

a few months ago it was for weekly:

pro = 5m tokens, 5x = 41m tokens, 20x = 83m tokens

making 5x the best value for the money (8.33x over pro for max 5x). this information may be outdated though, and doesn't apply to the new on peak 5h multipliers. anything that increases usage just burns through that flat token quota faster.

--model claude-opus-4-7 works as well

they've also introduced a lot of caching and token burn related bugs which makes things worse. any bug that multiplies the token burn also multiplies their infrastructure problems.

Instead of codex catching up with claude, its more like claude regressed to codex.

Honestly? It was the claude code leak that did it. There was a lot more smoke and mirrors than I anticipated, the poisoning tool calls, how their prompting is, how "messy" a lot of it was etc.

I meant that I thought the exponential with the models is slowing down (AGI, etc). The application though for regular people will continue to go forward.

3개월 전discuss

this is indicative to me that the exponential is slowing down. tool and model progress was huge in 2025 but has been pretty stale this year. the usage changes from anthropic, gemini, and openai indicate it's just a scale of economy issue now so unless there's a major breakthrough they're just going to settle down as vendors of their own particular similar flavor of apis.

Even if they fix it, and that's a big if - It doesn't really mean anything when they have a ton of MBAs and product managers working internally to make it creep back in. It's going to take a decade to grow trust again and I don't think they're up to the task.

regardless of your opinion of ai in government, sam could not have picked a worse way for optics to swoop in and make a deal. it just looks incredibly bad.

i had that happen on firefox mobile months ago and installed video background play fix which all it does is stop sending the js hooks for when tab/window focus is lost. it was something clearly targeted to mobile browsers for people like me who don't bother with official apps anymore as they're riddled with antipatterns and ads. you can just youtube to the homepage like it's an app anyway.

it's hard to get invested into anything google when they've been non stop killing products or making them worse for over a decade.

if the uk wants to be a authoritarian state then do it properly and not this grey area of "you're passively sending packets so you're fined a billion dollars so you block us"

it's worse than china's firewall
