> who wins the long-term race Isn’t the race between Chinese open-weight models and the others more decisive for the future?
I think the race is actually between locally optimized rigs with extremely strict context management, and the rest.
As we speak, Claude is down. I was already complaining about how extremely slow and dumb it has gotten since Opus 5. I guess this will be the last nail in the coffin for Claude. At least for me.
i'm using claude right now, like literally in an iterm2 window next to my browser window where I'm typing.
consumer hardware is moving towards local ai and the models you can run now locally are already at opus 4.6 level. within 3 years most pc's sold will be ai computers.
The future is models baked into directly into hardware, onto bare metal, serving 10k+ tokens/sec.
We can have our little models, they'll be serving a different customer.

Their revenue has increased dramatically. The run rate was 9B in Dec, 19B in Mar, 47B in May. It's now at 65B. https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2026-08-17/anthropic...
Annualized. Which is another word for made-up.
Looking like this will be the last month with Anthropic. Between the outages and just overall crap utility of Opus/Fable lately...
I haven’t had any issues with Fable or Opus code-wise, but the way it has started writing recently has almost become incomprehensible. At the end of a long session it will start saying stuff like “There are smoke tests on the foundation-gates that are left for the cutting seam checks on these domains, which is genuinely your decision” Never before the past couple months have I ever not been able to understand wtf it’…
I was working on a project recently that required the attribution of a data source, and it added to the "licenses" page of the project something like "We use and per their terms we owe an acknowledgement of attribution to you, the user."
So in addition to the stuff it says in a session there's gobbledy gook that it prints out in copy as well.
Claude Opus and Fable are so bad compared to GPT-5.6-Sol it's ridiculous, their desktop client is worse, and the value is worse because OpenAI has been spamming discounts. They better get their shit together at Anthropic! Edit: If you're mad I'm light on the details I have provided some in the replies.
The whole thing is getting ridiculous.

I really would like to see OpenAI’s focus on efficiency but everytime I use Codex, it wastes tokens like there’s no tomorrow, hitting week limit in a day, where I’m able to use Claude just fine. Maybe it’s based on the codebase, I don’t know, but I have better results with Claude than Codex.
I had the opposite experience. Claude models and its harness feel like they are set to eat tokens for everything, especially if it’s ultracode effort. I have seen it spawn 6 agents and eat my 4-hour quota right in front of me. Codex is on point and follows instructions well even with max effort. I like my analogy of Claude being garrulous and Codex being laconic. If I see more limit hits in same sitting session, I ha…
For anyone on the fence, I was a hardcore CC user since it was released. I made the full switch to 5.6 sol and Codex about a month ago. It's the better experience. The limits are way higher (I almost never burn through my $200/m plan), and the output is better than Opus 4.8 (Opus 5 is completely unusable for me).

Not to sound like a mark, I try to not get attached to any of these providers. I've jumped between copilot, claude, gemini and chatgpt since the start of the year. chatgpt wasn't even worth looking at early this year. Anthropic has the smarter models for sure, and seems to be default in corporate. However, the amount of budget you get with GPT as a user is much better, the harness feels more polished, and the models…
I just need a Sol translator to sit in front of Fable and Opus :/
