Elevated error rates on Opus 4.7
- sinak 5mo agoSonnet is giving an overloaded message as well.
- kristianc 5mo agoThey're having quite the day for devrel..
- gopalv 5mo agoSonnet is also throwing overloaded error. My systems are hitting exponential delay retries, so this might not get better because retries overload things again. > {'type': 'error', 'error': {'details': None, 'type': 'overloaded_error', 'message': 'Overloaded'}, 'request_id': 'req_ ... I can see a weird spike in my cache hit-rate a few minutes before, so this might actually be some extra caching they have thrown in.

- 9cb14c1ec0 5mo agoDo they need a waiting list, or what?
- cyanydeez 5mo agoso, all those CEOs moving all those remaining engineers to be dependent on a cloud service to the extent that there's no local development capability are gonna appologize right
- claaams 5mo agoin a year or two when AI tool costs go from 5M per year to 15M per year...even then, maybe not.
- lepuski 5mo agoI can't see why anyone still chooses Claude. Codex outperforms it in most respects, and its quotas are about ten times larger. A $100 Codex plan gets me through the whole week with 6–12 hours of coding per day.
- elahieh 5mo agoOne reason might be that Claude Opus 4.7 thinking benchmarks better on Arena Coding at https://arena.ai/leaderboard/text/coding https://arena.ai/leaderboard/text/coding ... hopefully that effectively assesses correctness. It doesn't account for reliability though.
- nothinkjustai 5mo agoBecause of marketing and vibes mostly. Heck I prefer DeepSeek to both of those.
- zmmmmm 5mo agointerestingly I had the same experience, and weirdly it's in part because it is clearly less intelligent. It's more of a mechanistic tool just doing what I ask (but still very smart and very competent about it) and less trying to win a nobel prize with each answer. Turns out I actually like that.
- josephg 5mo agoWow, I'm really surprised. I tried deepseek (their best model, through the official API). Its extremely cheap, but its clearly not as good at programming as Opus 4.7. It seems nowhere near as good at making high level design choices. Deepseek also seems to get stuck in whack-a-mole fixing loops much more than opus. I stopped it at one point, and asked opus to solve the problem it was trying to solve and it saw the solution immediately. I was running deepseek through claude's code agent harness. Maybe it works better through a different tool?
- esafak 5mo agoYou tried v4?
- FergusArgyll 5mo agoI thought the deal with xai was supposed to solve this? Is this basically the adding lanes paradox?
- josephg 5mo agoYou're assuming the elevated error rates are due to the system being overloaded. We have no evidence this is actually the case. Its much more likely due to a simple misconfiguration or failing router or something.
- cr125rider 5mo agoThe incredible infrastructure required to coordinate warehouses worth of compute actually seems pretty tricky. They’re worth more money than god so they get 0 leniency, but it does seem hard.
- imperio59 5mo agoI love Claude but I hate waiting a minute or two for any inference to start. I hope they can get their xAI capacity online ASAP and that it helps!
- textlapse 5mo agoSay what you will about Sam Altman, but at least he engages with his user base and acts on user feedback. Dario and co seem to be on some elevated pedestal - us mere mortals are beneath them - and they have this scattershot devrel where each engineer has their own X way of communicating to the public often at odds with each other. I loved Sonnet and Opus fwiw but not anymore.
- SilverElfin 5mo agoPlus I can’t really trust someone who emphasizes ethics and then partners with Elon to buy compute from a potentially illegal natural gas powered datacenter.
