I'm having actual coding conversations that I used to only have with senior devs, right now, while browsing HN, and code that does what I asked is being produced. I’m using Opus 4 for coding and there is no way that model demonstrates any reasoning or demonstrates any “intelligence” in my opinion. I’ve been through the having conversations phase etc but doesn’t get you very far, better to read a book. I use these models to help me type less now, that’s it. My prompts basically tell it to not do anything fancy and that works well.
