I would love to use their API but I can never get anyone to respond to me. It's like they have no real interest in being a developer platform. Has anyone gotten their vague application approved?

#32Very interesting timing of this release, amidst the turmoil at rival Open AI. I wonder if this is a clear play to capture enterprise customers who have been spooked by the drama.
People spooked by OpenAI turmoil should go with Azure OpenAI services. They host OpenAI's models for almost the same pricing but with enterprise-level SLA. If you are outside the US you can also choose an Azure datacenter closer to you.

#34This is where OpenAI/MSFT loses. Chaos in OpenAI/MSFT will lead to Anthropic overtaking them. They've already been ahead in many areas, dead locked in others, but with OpenAI facing a crisis, they'll likely gain significant headway if they execute well .. at least for the risk-adverse enterprise use-cases. I still am not a fan of either due to restrictions and 'safety' training wheels that treat me like a child
I mean, that would be predicated on it actually being possible to get access to and use their models...which in my experience is basically a limitless void. Meanwhile I spend hundreds of dollars a month with msft/oai.

Yeah, I have been waiting for six months. And I have a real company with a real use case. I guess demand is off the charts.

Yes it was pretty easy even though it took like 2 weeks.
You just have to make it sound like you could maybe potentially spend money on them one day(instead of just being a curious nerd trying things out)

#37Great but it stills leaves the problem of accessing it. I have never heard back on access from Anthropic's website and still waiting on the request through Bedrock. Not sure the success rate of others but it seems impossible as a business to get access to the API. Not a downplay on their announcement but with how difficult it seems to get API access its hard to see the improvement.
Same experience on my side; they're uninterested in actually running the business it seems.

Have heard similar things from friends, who were then able to get access via AWS

Anthropic models have way inferior capabilities.

#40For coding it is still 10x worse than gpt4. I asked it to write a simple database sync function and it gives me tons of pseudocode like `//sync object with best practices`. When I ask it to give me real code it forgets tons of key aspects.
Agreed, but I do find gpt4 has been increasing the amount of pseudo code recently. I think they are a/b testing me. I find myself asking if how much energy it wasted giving me replies that I then have to tell it to fix.. Which is of course a silly thing to do, but maybe someone at oAI is listening?
