This is the first time I saw a model pop-up on HN and didn't really care. Model exhaustion? It looks interesting but not exciting.
While I'd normally _love_ incremental improvements --- I think the recent ones are far too minor to get excited about or change up a workflow. Besides, benchmarks tend to exaggerate the gap between versions.
At this point I'd almost rather Anthropic wait and really wow us with a 5.0 release -- something that improves across the board, feels less uneven, and is performant enough that people can actually put it through its paces without constantly rationing usage.
Yeah.. Also, after they fucked up the CC, released that 4.7 etc. I switched completely to Codex and honestly do not wish to go back to half assed harness of Claude. Codex somehow got extremely good in a couple of months.
