This is huge. It only came out 8 minutes ago but I was already able to bootstrap a 12k per month revenue SaaS startup!

Amateur. Opus 4.6 this afternoon built me a startup that identifies developers who aren’t embracing AI fully, liquifies them and sells the produce for $5/gallon. Software Engineering is over!

Not 12M?

Will Opus 4.6 via Claude Code be able to access the 1M context limit? The cost increase by going above 200k tokens is 2x input, 1.5x output, which is likely worth it especially for people with the $100/$200 plans.

I agree! I just retargeted my corporate espionage agent team at your startup and managed to siphon off 10.4k per month of your revenue.

It's probably valued at 1.2B, at least

I found that "Agentic Search" is generally useless in most LLMs since sites with useful data tend to block AI models.

The answer to "when is it cheaper to buy two singles rather than one return between Cambridge to London?" is available in sites such as BRFares, but no LLM can scrape it so it just makes up a generic useless answer.

Is Opus 4.6 available for Claude Code immediately? Curious how long it typically takes for a new model to become available in Cursor?

`claude update` then it will show up as the new model and also the effort picker/slider thing.

It's already in Cursor. I see it and I didn't even restart.

I had to 'Restart to Update' and it was there. Impressive!
