What I understand is that it's GPT 6 that just went into training, and that GPT 5 is complete and being delayed until after the U.S. election.

This is pure speculation, right?

Here's something that talks about it. I can't speak for the legitimacy, but I'm not pulling it out of my ass. They may be pulling it out of theirs. :-)

Opus remained better than GPT for me, even after the release of GPT-4o. VERY happy to see an even further improvement beyond that, Claude is a terrific product and given the news that GPT-5 only began its training several weeks ago I don't see any situation where Anthropic is dethroned in the near term. There are only two parts of Anthropic's offering I'm not a fan of: - Lack of conversation sharing: I had a conversa…

I've had way better success with GPT-4o than claude. I wonder why

Personal prompting style, I imagine,

https://openai.com/index/openai-board-forms-safety-and-secur... (May 28th) > OpenAI has recently begun training its next frontier model and we anticipate the resulting systems to bring us to the next level of capabilities on our path to AGI.

No doubt openai have been training big models for the last year. If “gpt5” is only just starting it means recent training runs have had disappointing results and have been passed off as “Gpt4o” or whatever. The value of all the AI companies is predicated on high chance of AGI, and gpt5 failing to be revolutionary may pop the whole bubble (+10 trillion of market cap)

Sam said on Lex's podcast that people should temper their expectations for GPT-5, not in that it will necessarily suck, but that they want to ramp up ability slowly over time rather than discrete large steps.

People really, really, underestimate how important prompting is.

I would be confident in stating that half the people who complain about a model are actually just suffering from poor prompting.

To each their own, but I still prefer ChatGPT. The UI for Claude is terrible in my opinion.

I had subscriptions for both and I would fire off questions to both of them and see which one I liked more and I consistently liked the ChatGPT ones more. I canceled my subscription last week for Claude. I am super happy that Anthropic continues to push the envelope on this and I hope to re-subscribe to them in the future.

I wish they'd implement branching conversations like in ChatGPT. And convenient message editing, that doesn't paste large chunks of text as an non-editable attachment or break formatting. Seems like such a simple thing to do, relative to developing an AI, yet the minor differences in the UI/UX are what prevents me from using claude a lot more.

Hi! I’m a product engineer on the Claude.ai team. Claude.ai does support branching conversations. If you hover on a message, there should be an edit button, and once you edit the message, you can again hover on it, which will show you left/right arrows that will switch between the branches. Please let me know if you have any troubles with this!

If it's really only the UI that's bothering you, why not use a web UI such as Open WebUI?

The UI wasn’t the only issue, but I will look into that.

If anyone would like to try it for coding in VSCode, I just added it to http://double.bot on v93 (AI coding assistant). Feels quite strong so far and got a few prompts that I know failed with gpt4o. fyi for anyone testing this in their product, their docs are wrong, it's claude-3-5-sonnet-20240620, not claude-3.5-sonnet-20240620.

If anyone would like to try it for coding in Neovim, I just added it to:
