Anyone else having serious reliability issues with artifact editing? I find that the artifacts quite often get "stuck", where the LLM is trying to edit the artifact but the state of the artifact does not change. Seems like the LLM is somehow failing in editing the artifact silently, while thinking that it is actually doing the edits. The way to resolve this is to ask Claude to make a new artifact, which then has all…

This has been super annoying! I just tell it to make sure the artifact is updated and it usually fixes it, but it's annoying to have to notice/keep an eye on it.

I've nicked a sentence from your article to use as the title above. Hope that's clearer!

https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html > Otherwise please use the original title, unless it is misleading or linkbait; don't editorialize. The word "container" doesn't even appear in the original post from Anthropic, let alone "server-side container environment."

Often in these conversations we forget that editing is different from editorializing. Editing can make meaning clearer! (In this example, reactions are mixed as to whether it was successful).

Editorializing, on the other hand, is about adding clickbait or bias.

For the past two to three weeks I've noticed Claude just consistently lagging or potentially even being throttled for pretty minor coding or CLI tasks. It'll basically stop showing any progress for at least a couple minutes. Sometimes exiting the query and re-trying gets it to work but other times it keeps happening. I pay for Pro so I don't think it's just API rate limiting. Would appreciate if that could be fixed b…

I've run into similar issues too. Even small scripts or commands sometimes get throttled. It does not feel like a resource limit. It feels more like the system is just overly sensitive.

Somebody call the cyber psychologist! (Cychologist?)

Dynamic spurious profit probing. See how many users N times their usage without giving up forever. They have to do something because you can't really fist advertisements into an api

OP is paying $200/m and anthropic is very much in the hyper funded growth stage. I very much doubt they are going accountant mode on it yet Likely the common young startup issues: a mix of scaling issues and poorly implemented changes. Improve one thing, make other stuff worse etc

Probably not accountant mode but haven't they always had daily quotas that get used up? Like they don't want everyone hitting the service nonstop because they don't have enough GPUs to run inference at peak times of day?

So it could be a matter of serving more highly quantized model because giving bad results has higher user retention than "try again later"

This model is funny to say the least: > /cost ⎿ Total cost: $50.42 Total duration (API): 1h 3m 2.3s Total duration (wall): 3h 36m 56.4s Total code changes: 1205 lines added, 350 lines removed Usage by model: claude-3-5-haiku: 89.5k input, 2.1k output, 15.7k cache read, 0 cache write claude-sonnet: 15.7m input, 84.8k output, 6.5m cache read, 0 cache write > what model are you ? ● I'm Claude Sonnet (the model shown in…

That’s hilarious. How’s this model in practice?

it has been quite impressive so far. It makes very less number of mistakes.

Cons: Context size if less so compaction happens frequently. Interesting bit is that the compaction doesn't seem to affect it as much as the Claude models. So I don't have to continuously look at the context size. Also it doesn't seem to lose the coherence even when nearing like 1% of the context.

I don't have access to this yet, so can someone who does tell if: it can take a .PDF with single table with, say, a list of food items and prices. And then in a .docx in the same folder with a table with, say, prices and calories. Can this thing then, in a one shot, produce a .xlsx with the items and calories and save that to the same directory? It really doesn't matter what the lists are of, just keep it very simple…

I can sell you AGI for $100k

Is that your rate or do you have a AI system that will do the thing I asked for?

Like, um, no joke here.

> Because, strangely enough, that's pretty much my definition of AGI. "It's life jim, but not as we know it" -Bones, probably. I've seen some hokey definitions, but a 3 expression inductance clause is pretty low bar. On that score, your REPL and my compiler are AGI.

Given that someone has to operate this REPL and compiler, the I is that someone. A system that can do that without an operator would be a decent step forwards.

Yeah, that is the thing.

Like, the task I sketched out is the bare basic sketch of what you can ask a new grad/hire to do. Which ends up being ~80% of their job anyways. I really don't think the average person could do that task (unfortunately).

If the new Claude code stuff honestly can do this, then, like I said, that's a close enough definition of AGI for me.

Does already, read the docs

I think a link would have been far more helpful than "RTFM". Especially for those of us reading this exchange outside of the line of fire.

Don't put the onus (Opus!) on me! Just a dad approach to helping. If there's enough time to writ prose about the problem you could at least rtfm first!

If you know something is covered by the documentation it's useful to provide a link, especially if that documentation is difficult to find.

(I couldn't find that documentation when I went looking just now.)
