You can get your HN profile analyzed by it and it's pretty funny :) https://hn-wrapped.kadoa.com/ I'm using this to test the humor of new models.

Always wandering how people create such free and publicly available tools with the expressive pricing of for example Claude sonnet 3.7 ??

Anthropic doubling down on code makes sense, that has been their strong suit compared to all other models Curious how their Devin competitor will pan out given Devin's challenges

It's their strong suit no doubt, but sometimes I wish the chat would not be so eager to code. It often throws code at me when I just want a conceptual or high level answer. So often that I routinely tell it not to.

Even when you tell it “no code, just talk. Let’s ensure we are in alignment and discuss our options. I’ll tell you when to code” it still decides it is going to write code.

Telling it “if you were in an interview and you jumped to writing code without asking any questions, you’d fail the interview” is usually good enough to convince it to stop and ask questions.

Can't wait to try this in 6 months when it arrives in europe and the competition has superior models available before then

It’s already available (at least) in Germany, are you having issues ?

3.7 doesn't seem to be available in Bedrock, but at least its easy enough to change your region in AWS without jumping through hoops with a VPN.

Anecdotal cost impact- After toying with Claude Code for the afternoon, my Anthropic spend just went from $20/mo to $10/day. Still worth it, but that’s a big jump.

Yeah I think that's very doable for a business but it gets expensive if you are just tinkering

Yes, I think that's RAG. It's Retrieval Augmented Generation - you're retrieving content to augment the generation. Who cares if you used vector search for the retrieval? The best vector retrieval implementations are already switching to a hybrid between vector and FTS, because it turns out BM25 etc is still a better algorithm for a lot of use-cases. "Agentic search" makes much less sense to me because the term "agen…

I think it depends who "you" is. In classic RAG the search mechanism is preordained, the search is done up front and the results handed to the model pre-baked. I'd interpret "agentic search" as anything where the model has potentially a collection of search tools that it can decide how to use best for a given query, so the search algorithm, the query, and the number of searches are all under its own control.

Exactly. Was the extra information pushed to the model as part of the query? It’s RAG. Did the model pull the extra information in via a tool call? Agentic search.

The biggest complaint I (and several others) have is that we continuously hit the limit via the UI after even just a few intensive queries. Of course, we can use the console API, but then we lose ability to have things like Projects, etc. Do you foresee these limitations increasing anytime soon? Quick Edit: Just wanted to also say thank you for all your hard work, Claude has been phenomenal.

If you are open to alternatives, try https://glama.ai/gateway We currently serve ~10bn tokens per day (across all models). OpenAI compatible API. No rate limits. Built in logging and tracing. I work with LLMs every day, so I am always on top of adding models. 3.7 is also already available. https://glama.ai/models/claude-3-7-sonnet-20250219 The gateway is integrated directly into our chat ( https://glama.ai/chat ). So…

I see Cohere, is there any support for in-line citations like you can get with their first party API?

I saw that Claude 3.7 Sonnet both regular and thinking was available for Github Copilot (Pro) 5 hours ago for me, I enabled it and tried it out a couple of times, but for the past hour the option has disappeared. I'm situated in Europe (Sweden), anyone else having the same experience?

It seemed kinda buggy as well with latencies

I asked Claude 3.7 Sonnet to generate an SVG illustration of Maha Kumbh. The generated SVG includes a Shivling (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lingam) and also depicts Naga Sadhus well. Both Grok 3 and OpenAI o3 failed miserably.

You can view the generated SVG and the exact prompt here: https://shekhargulati.com/2025/02/25/can-claude-3-7-sonnet-g...

Hi everyone! Boris from the Claude Code team here. @eschluntz, @catherinewu, @wolffiex, @bdr and I will be around for the next hour or so and we'll do our best to answer your questions about the product.

Who the heck is on your UX team?

WHY is a huge % of my UX filled with nothing? I would apprececiate metrics, token graphs etc

Why so much wasted space? ... >>??
