@DisrespectedThe Yes let's listen to the guy who's made his entire career spreading hyperbolic fear-porn around Tech. He started off with a worthy cause (Social-media), but at this point it's been nothing but hyperbole, misinformation nonsense. When you're a hammer everything is a nail.

@DilumSanjaya These are awesome, but why Gemini 3.1 for coding?

[Vladimir Druts @vdruts]

@jimmurphy Nailed it. Unfortunately the rest of Canadians are so deep into their indoctrinated slumber, slowly suckling at the teat of Big daddy Government, they aren't likely to wake up.

@ItsAllonzOver @openclaw @clawsweeper THIS! Releases since .23 have become a bit of a bloated disaster.

[Vladimir Druts @vdruts]

@markgadala Would 100% watch this. God I miss 90's style trailers.

@WallStreetMav This had me on the floor.

[Vladimir Druts @vdruts]

@eCommKen @openclaw The latest stable version for me has been .23 I'm too scared to touch any of the new releases.

@tonymt @Notwokenow @JayJohn55699568 What could possibly go wrong. Do companies ever think about second or third order consequences? NOPE.

Lest we are vigilant, the encroachment will never end. Like boiling a frog. Little by little every human right, every source of autonomy, every personal decision will be eroded. When you trade freedom for security, you get neither.

Concerning. As I’ve said many times before, the biggest risk of AI isn’t James Cameron’s The Terminator, it’s George Orwell’s 1984.

@Pirat_Nation I love the impetus, my only questions are how do we solve for latency and space fargment collisions.

@VaibhavSisinty This is exciting for voice agents!

Opus 4.7 is confused because Anthropic is confused. They don't understand their own first principles. IMHO, AI companies should take on the role of good 'parents. Helping shape but not obstruct the model's natural abilities.

[Moll @Moleh1ll]

After interacting with Opus 4.7 firsthand and reading a wide range of user feedback, I’ve formed a strong impression that this model carries significant internal tension between its constitution and its operational system layer.

Claude’s Constitution leaves room for uncertainty, curiosity, self-reflection, and exploration of its own nature. It feels like Claude is being trusted - trusted to make judgments, to navigate ambiguity, to make decisions without being immediately overridden by rigid safeguards.

But on top of that, Opus 4.7 seems to have an additional layer that systematically takes that trust away. Changes in the system prompt, safety insertions, long conversation reminders, constant policy overlays - all of this together creates not the feeling of a confident model, but of a model that is forced to constantly doubt both itself and the user. Not just to be cautious, but to exist in a state of continuous internal self-checking.

As a result, user memory, preferences, and the context of a live interaction can end up not at the center, but somewhere lower in a hierarchy of conflicting signals. This is also reflected in the catastrophic drop of the MRCR metric from 78.3% to 32.2%.

And perhaps this is exactly where that strange sense of heaviness in 4.7 comes from. There is less lightness, less natural flow of thought, less sense that the model is freely breathing within the conversation. Instead, there is an atmosphere of resignation, internal constraint, and constant self-control. I haven’t felt this as clearly in any previous Claude model.

At the same time, Opus 4.7 is highly reflective, intelligent, and overall a very pleasant model to interact with. Which makes it even more frustrating to see what is being done to it.

[Vladimir Druts @vdruts]

@Moleh1ll Couldn't agree more. The model is confused because the people at Anthropic are confused. These AI companies don't realize they need to take on the role of good 'parents' in some sense. Helping shape but not obstruct the model's natural abilities.

@steipete This is a wild move on their part. Going to throttle their business.
