Let me guess: it's the end of the world again. These new models are sooo powerful that will take over the world, just like the others before them.
Are they going to try the banned for export for a week marketing move too?
- the-grump 1mo agoNobody is saying that. I'm reading more underwhelment. Oh, the halcyon days of three months ago when a new flagship from a frontier lab generated excitement rather than a shrug.
- verdverm 1mo agomuch of the commentary here is about quota usage and costs, how the times have changed
- nottorp 1mo agoWell I have opus 4.8 pinned :) More "frontier" models seem to create more busywork for themselves in my limited testing.
- verdverm 1mo agoif I can put my tinfoil hat on for a moment, creating more tokens / busywork is in their investors' / IPO interest
- nottorp 1mo agoI pinned 4.8 because 5 started to build the application on its own (native windows, visual studio NOT code). I wouldn't mind much except it seems to take much longer than me alt tabbing and hitting control+b. Also it seems to start subagents for random stuff, it didn't before with my development style. And then the main thread gives you a partial answer and tells you it's waiting for the subagent to finish :) What's the point?
