This is huge. It only came out 8 minutes ago but I was already able to bootstrap a 12k per month revenue SaaS startup!
Anthropic really said here's the smartest model ever built and then lobotomized it 8 minutes after launch. Classic.

CC has >6000 open issues, despite their bot auto-culling them after 60 days of inactivity. It was ~5800 when I looked just a few days ago so they seem to be accelerating towards some kind of bug singularity.
plot twist, it's all claude code instances submitting bug reports on behalf of end users.

claude swe-bench is 80.8 and codex is 56.8 Seems like 4.6 is still all-around better?
Its SWE bench pro not swe bench verified. The verified benchmark has stagnated

#174I know this is normalized culture for large corporate America and seems to be ok, I think its unethical, undignified and just wrong.
If you were in my room physically, built a lego block model of a beautiful home and then I just copied it and shared it with the world as my own invention, wouldn't you think "that guy's a thief and a fraud" but we normalize this kind of behavior in the software world. edit: I think even if we don't yet have a great way to stop it or address the underlying problems leading to this way of behavior, we ought to at least talk about it more and bring awareness to it that "hey that's stealing - I want it to change".

#177Hmm all leaks had said this would be Claude 5. Wonder if it was a last minute demotion due to performance. Would explain the few days' delay as well.
I think the naming schemes are quite arbitrary at this point. Going to 5 would come with massive expectations that wouldn't meet reality.
Re: Claude Opus 4.6
#178> We build Claude with Claude. Our engineers write code with Claude Code every day well that explains quite a bit

The cost per token served has been falling steadily over the past few years across basically all of the providers. OpenAI dropped the price they charged for o3 to 1/5th of what it was in June last year thanks to "engineers optimizing inferencing", and plenty of other providers have found cost savings too. Turns out there was a lot of low-hanging fruit in terms of inference optimization that hadn't been plucked yet. >…
I have not see any reporting or evidence at all that Anthropic or OpenAI is able to make money on inference yet. > Turns out there was a lot of low-hanging fruit in terms of inference optimization that hadn't been plucked yet. That does not mean the frontier labs are pricing their APIs to cover their costs yet. It can both be true that it has gotten cheaper for them to provide inference and that they still are subsid…
The evidence is in third party inference costs for open source models.
