opus 4.7 is the first time I'm starting to just defer not strictly necessary tasks bc I don't expect the model to be able to complete the tasks effectively or without making major mistakes/errors

but the exponential is still going strong, right dario?

[Consumer Ninja 🥷 @consumer_ninjas]

opus 4.7 basically unusable

first major release to truly feel like a regression

mistakes, hallucinations, insane reasoning for simple requests, faulty assumptions...

bring back opus 4.5

[Consumer Ninja 🥷 @consumer_ninjas]

opus 4.7 claude code vibe is

still MASSIVE regression compared to the dec-jan golden era of claude code

rest in peace poor claude...

[Consumer Ninja 🥷 @consumer_ninjas]

@AnthropicAI please fix Claude Code !!! Major quality regression since like last week (around time of 1M Opus context rollout)

[Consumer Ninja 🥷 @consumer_ninjas]

@Electrofountain Got it, yeah idk what's going on but can confirm I am getting 100% junk from this model quite often now

[Consumer Ninja 🥷 @consumer_ninjas]

Claude Code vibe is legitimate regression in quality over past ~4 days so

CC is consistently making mistakes now where previously it would not

Vibes down 😔

[Consumer Ninja 🥷 @consumer_ninjas]

@Electrofountain Have you been using Opus 4.6 (1M context) after they made that the default for Opus?

[Consumer Ninja 🥷 @consumer_ninjas]

Thinking that 1M Opus context actually is like a quiet major quality degradation... 🤔

[Consumer Ninja 🥷 @consumer_ninjas]

@Electrofountain I'm not sure but I think it's the 1M Opus context. Really feels like this degradation coincided with when they made that the default.

I'm building a custom memory system for CC:

"The built-in memory system is too granular (individual "memories" with no context) and too passive (only saves when explicitly told or when it notices something). You've got 2GB of rich conversation history going to waste."

[Consumer Ninja 🥷 @consumer_ninjas]

"half these memories were documenting code patterns and architecture that the rules explicitly say to skip."

Claude consolidated its own auto-memories:

46 files → 11 files (76% reduction).

@claudeai on the auto-memory feature:

"Your suspicion is valid. The auto-memory feature creates too many fine-grained files without deduplication awareness. It doesn't check what's already in CLAUDE.md before saving, so you end up with a parallel copy of your own instructions."

[Consumer Ninja 🥷 @consumer_ninjas]

"And project planning memories never get cleaned up after implementation. The "what NOT to save" rules in the memory system prompt are good in theory but clearly weren't being followed.

[Consumer Ninja 🥷 @consumer_ninjas]

@claudeai Claude's verdict on the Claude Code memory system:

"The core problem. You're right — the memory system has accumulated significant bloat."

Proposed consolidation:

"Total: 46 → 11 files. ~76% reduction."

cc @AnthropicAI

[Consumer Ninja 🥷 @consumer_ninjas]

Claude all the time

"You're right — I skipped the post copy and Slack step. That's documented in the CLAUDE.md and memory. Let me fix that now."

It's just... not AGI yet...

[Consumer Ninja 🥷 @consumer_ninjas]

claude cowork design taste > claude code

[Consumer Ninja 🥷 @consumer_ninjas]

while the models have surpassed human ability on practically every technical dimension

they wholly lack these intrinsically human capabilities

[Consumer Ninja 🥷 @consumer_ninjas]

on this "AGI" thing

the models have no vision, no creativity... they will build ANYTHING for you, BUT...

we don't need 100,000,000 new products... there's probably only a couple of truly interesting product ideas possible just outside of our current techno-reality-space

[Consumer Ninja 🥷 @consumer_ninjas]

but finding those particular ideas, and then CHOOSING to work on them is fundamentally only a human capability...

it requires intuition, instinct, creativity, conviction and risk...

[Consumer Ninja 🥷 @consumer_ninjas]

implementation cost is basically at zero

creativity and intuition are at a premium
consistent effort over time is at a premium
distribution is at a premium (always has been)
