    This kind of hyperbole isn’t helpful. Security concerns about supply chain attacks in the AUR (well known to be extremely insecure well before LLMs got popular) isn’t “killing” Arc…

    I’m not sure how true this is, Opus 5 immediately used 2 subagents on the first task I gave it on Friday. In fact my first thought was how it was similar to Fable in that sense.

    Maybe more accurately I should have said “larger”. Fable has the most parameters, Haiku has the fewest. Also fwiw I’ve never found LLM benchmarks to match reality based on my own u…

    I think you’re just lucky. Look at the Claude status page to see just how often they have outages (it’s almost daily). Even most of the green days have issues if you hover over the…

    Fable is better than Opus which is better than Sonnet which is better than Haiku. They’re basically just sizes. Though it gets even more confusing because they also have effort lev…

    No that’s enterprise accounts. Team accounts are similar to regular Pro and 5x Max accounts in both price and features.

    If it is 128kbps MP3 then it’s slightly worse than YouTube which generally has 128kbps AAC and OPUS versions of everything.

    Speaking of model killers, can they do “wine glass completely full to the top” yet? That‘s the one I used to show people but I haven’t tried it in a while.
