Having used claude 4 for a few hours (and claude 3.7 and gemini 2.5 pro for much more than that) I really think it's much better in ways that aren't being well captured by benchmarks. It does a much better job of debugging issues then either 3.7 or gemini and so far it doesn't seem to have the 'reward hacking' behavior of 3.7.
It's a small step for model intelligence but a huge leap for model usability.
- itchyjunk 1y agoI have the same experience. I was pretty happy with gemini 2.5 pro and was barely using claude 3.7. Now I am strictly using claude 4 (sonnet mostly). Especially with tasks that require multi tool use, it nicely self corrects which I never noticed in 3.7 when I used it. But it's different in conversational sense as well. Might be the novelty, but I really enjoy it. I have had 2 instances where it had very different take and kind of stuck with me.
