They backtested with public models, wouldn't the model weights already have the data? I double checked with chatgpt and looks like agents also had web search tool available so they could just lookup the past. https://chatgpt

Completely agreed. I think the distillation from Fable to Opus is doing well on benchmarks but not translating into day to day work

Opus 5 is remarkably bad at instruction following over long chats. I have to repeat “Be succint”, “talk like a friend or colleague would”, “no rambling” or some variant of it every few messages

I talk to Claude like no one is going to read it. full of typos, often via voice where I am literally just thinking out loud. I don’t think anyone will find it valuable and I don’t want anyone to read it

The thing is beyond like top 10 AWS services(ec2, s3, sqs, aurora and few more) this is how most of AWS is. It’s just stuff thrown at the wall to see if it sticks. I wouldn’t be surprised if median AWS service does less than 100k in annual

except besides benchmarks, most of these models don't meet reliability of Sol/Opus in coding work. Opus unfortunately talks very weirdly so not a great out of the box experience

I think the answer then is to get a Phd? I mean, one should learn it to satisfy their curiosity and to build things but I don't think it's going to help you career in any significant way.

My problem with latest models is that you can’t tell them anything or they’ll treat it as gospel and over do it For example this says > Reduce code indentation. Avoid Arrow Anti-Pattern. Leverage early return and continue. You can bet so

For _most_ day to day knowledge work (writing, excel, filling forms, coding) current SOTA models are good enough. There are diminishing marginal returns from paying more in my opinion. If you are disproving Jacobian Conjecture it makes sens

I am old and used to use FB back when it was cool. Think 2010-14 period, and it was addictive even then even when it was just content from friends. Humans have deep need for connection with other humans and they will be addicted to anything
