@petergyang That issue you brought up where Opus 5 loves to add unnecessary commentary? It was already really common on 4.6 too. It tends to swap out everyday words randomly, throw in extra transitions and explanations, and overuse double negatives.
@petergyang Forcontext, Opus 4.6 is one of the best models from its generation for both RP and literary writing when working in Chinese. I’ve only tried the newest Opus 5 for RP so far. It writes much more plainly than 4.6.There’s a small bump in logic, but the prose still feels pretty bland
