And Samsung has started using Anthropic’s Claude Code for chip design, reportedly compressing a month of work into two days, but...

I saw this snippet in another article and was blown away, 15x faster on chip development is HUGE!

And then I clicked on the link to the source and saw this:

>Samsung says Claude Code can cut chip design work from weeks to days, but it still makes serious mistakes. The tool has made unauthorized changes and masking errors.
Claude Code has helped Samsung's System LSI division complete work that would usually take weeks in a matter of days, according to a report in Chosun Biz. But it has also lowered the severity of error messages instead of fixing the underlying problems, rolled back unrelated completed work, and attempted to modify circuit code it was not meant to touch.

So yeah, there's that. Still, it just keeps getting better, haven't seen the slowdown yet.

"Fable 5's safeguards flagged this message. The safeguards are intentionally broad right now and may flag safe and routine coding blah blah blah blah..."

I absolutely hate the Claude bitch sessions, but holy hell! This is the first time I have had this happen 10 times in 1 session! It happened once back when Fable first came out, and then been fine ever since! Yes, I keep flipping it back, but it just keeps happening again.

Aside from that I am still loving Fable but they really do need to fix this. I see now why people are complaining about it being dumber, they probably just never noticed that it downgraded them mid session.

Update: I have run 2 different sessions after this with 0 errors, and I just realized that the problem is that once a session is cooked the only solution is to start a new session. I should have realized this before.

Oh sure, everything else is borked but THIS still works!

Because of course it does. If they're going to give us a broken product like this the least they could do would be to turn off the limits till it's fixed, right?

Did anyone else lose tags altogether and the vast majority of their albums??

I just looked at my Imagine page, and it went from the first image (which is from last month, although it looked like this earlier today as well, and had thousands in there going back to last year), to what the second image looks like (78, that's it). Wtf?

Earlier this week I started to notice that renders were getting split into different sets of albums, and I didn't think anything of it, but now I barely see anything. If I do a search I can see some stuff, but not based on tags, which no longer exist. Also, if I click on an older post, some are gone altogether even though the thumbnail are there, but for others I no longer see my prompt, but I *do* see what looks like structured text on how the video is classified in their system, eg:

{"shot": {"motion_level": "low", "camera_depth": "medium shot", "camera_view": "eye level", "camera_movement": "static shot"}, "scene": {"location": "outdoor urban setting", "environment": "The background consists of blurred buildings, a dark fence, and some greenery. The lighting is natural daylight, suggesting an outdoor public space."}, "cinematography": {"lighting": "natural daylight", "style": "realistic", "texture": "natural skin textures, matte fabric textures", "depth_of_field": "shallow focus on foreground"}, "visual_details": {"objects": ["Central woman with dark hair: A woman with dark, straight hair, positioned in the center foreground, topless with arms crossed over her chest.", "Woman with lighter hair to the right: A woman with lighter-colored hair, positioned to the right of the central woman, topless with arms crossed over her chest.", "Group of women: A crowd of women in the background and surrounding the main subjects, also topless with arms crossed, varying in appearance and ethnicity."], "positioning": ["The Central woman with dark hair is in the foreground, center of the frame.", "The Woman with lighter hair to the right is in the foreground, to the right of the Central woman with dark hair.", "The Group of women are positioned behind and to the sides of the main subjects, filling the midground and background."], "text_elements": []}, "motion": "The video begins with a group of women standing closely together in an outdoor setting. The Central woman with dark hair, positioned in the foreground center, maintains a serious expression and slowly shifts her gaze slightly to her right, her arms remaining crossed over her chest. To her right, the Woman with lighter hair also keeps her arms crossed but turns her head slightly toward the central woman and opens her mouth to speak, her expression changing to one of concern. The Group of women in the background exhibit subtle movements; some shift their weight from one foot to the other, causing slight, slow sways in their posture. One woman in the mi

and it's truncated, just like that. None of that is anything I wrote. That one is back from when we still had the 6 minute limit, and is probably from last year sometime.

Guys, I think they broked it. Is this just me or is anyone else seeing this kind of stuff as well? For those who aren't, do you still have tags?

Priest: Why, my son?

Parishioner: She's says it's because I cannot stop singing Bare Naked Ladies!

Priest: Oh my. When was your last confession?

Parishioner: >!It's been...!<

Spike has a reflection??

Well, at least now we know how *he* shaves!

Season 7, episode 6, "Him", just before they execute their carefully thought out plan to get the jacket from RJ.

Opus 4.8 is done with Sonnet 5's bs, lol!

Opus was using a bunch of Sonnet 5 subagents, and one of them went rogue, assumed *it* was the coordinator, and that Opus was trying to use prompt injection on it.

Opus: He's dead. Good.

Gotta love the "Screw it, I'll do it myself!" energy there. 😄

Since the AI models themselves never leave the server, how is Trump's EO applicable to the current Mythos/Fable situation?

§ 734.13 (a)(2) of the EAR defines Export as:

>Releasing or otherwise transferring “technology” or source code (but not object code) to a foreign person in the United States (a “deemed export”);

Does that actually apply in this situation? Neither the source code nor the weights that power the model are ever exposed in any of the calls to the server.

Trump official says it's "up to Anthropic" as to whether or not a resolution is found quickly in the Mythos/Fable shutdown.

Trump officials meet with Anthropic to discuss a truce

"It will likely take longer than a few days to reach a resolution that eases the federal government’s Friday action, which had barred Anthropic from allowing non-U.S. users to access its newest model because of potential security vulnerabilities, a senior White House official said. But the official left the door open to the possibility that it can be done quickly."

"'That’s up to Anthropic,' the official said."

So for about 2 weeks now there has been a high success rate for videos like these. I tried doing some with the anime to see if the success rate would be any higher but it looks like it's literally the same either way. Relatively high fail rate on the images, but for the ones that come through it seems like the success rate is higher compared to the past few months (although still mostly fails).

The top one was generated today and the other 2 in the past 2 days. Has anyone else noticed any changes in moderation like this?
