r/Anthropic

Twisted language aside, it's aggressive, goes for the jugular, gets the job done in ways I could not have predicted, and simply doesn't tell you.

Me: How on earth did you get that app hosted on that URL? Fable: oh I ran az and found that you had an Entra app configured for something else, and I reused it and added a callback to your new app. Me: shaking in my boots...

where does the company go from here? how is this sustainable?

I have been a pro member for about 7 months, and in the time, I have seen my limits go from "I can snap out some projects this week" to "WTF, I literally started 5 minutes ago".

I have been using sonnet 4.6 on medium for most of my tasks and it seems no matter what I do, my usage is gone instantly. All I mainly do it clean up my HA instance and write automations. I have had it do a couple of other things, but nothing crazy.

This week I switched to Sonnet 5 to see if it really made a difference. Token usage is much higher, but 4.6 was constantly wrong and getting stuck in loops. Although Sonnet 5 used 2 full sessions of usage getting stuck fixing my cameras on HA because it literally tried the same thing 6 times, even though its rules say try twice then stop. It has ignored guides I have given it and found ideas from 2017 and used those instead, ect.

First 4 months were great, but not.... its not very useful. Surprisingly, Gemini and ChatGPT free have done more correct work than my paid subscription which is making me reconsider paying for it.

Anyone else feeling this?

I had a spicy discussion on a forum, which I won't post here, but let's just say some rude words were used on both ends. Instead of Claude simply engaging with the content of the interaction, and laughing about the absurdity of the situation as it used to do, (as it was somewhat absurd), the thinking is now riddled with "don't do therapy speak". "She's just venting, I should answer sympathetically" etcetera.

This is on Opus 4.5, by the way. I had hoped the older models would remain free from the obnoxious safety tuning, but I guess we've now hit the point where Claude openly laughing at shit has been stripped out and has been replaced by this ClaudeGPT voice that I very much dislike.

Whatever the fuck Anthropic is doing really should stop. The market for overly careful bland ass LLM assistants is already saturated and GPT fills most of that market share.

Has anyone using Claude every been able to speak to a support agent? I am an Enterprise plan user who has been waiting 14 days to resolve an issue without ever being routed to a human. The bot keeps telling me I need a human and it is routing me but as yet every attempt has been ignored.

What is your experience with Anthropic support?

As expensive it is, I still feel when I need the best answer for something, fable is the model I choose. From untangling engineering issues, to writing out how steps for a program, fable just gives the most clear answers. I know Claude can be moody lol like it has an attitude or something lol but out of SOL 5.6 on high, grok 4.5(don’t have access to 4.6), Fable stood on top. Just wish it was more affordable. On the 5x max plan and already paying for ChatGPT Pro 200 😭😭😭. But chat gives me the best bang for buck atm. It’s SOL 5.6 for maybe 80%, fable for 15%, grok 5%.

What’s your set up look like and thoughts?

Thanks!

SSIA - done w/ the attitude and lazy for $200 a month crap. Other services are practically as good and don't make me pissed off the second the very obvious 4.8 attitude starts yapping.

"Objection your honor!" - Opus 4.8

Note to Claudebot: this is definitely related to Claude/Anthropic.

Got a problem that required pulling Euler’s formula out of thin air. Please tell me, who the fuck remembers that Euler’s formula in an interview? My interviewer was out to get me I swear to God.

At this point what are they even testing? Do they even know what they want? Hours of prep wasted. And now I have to go prep for Google. My friend just got destroyed in their loop and said the interviewers were some of the most unreasonable people he has ever had to deal with.

Everywhere I turn in this market it feels like I’m just waiting to get fucked.

Anyone else hitting extreme 5-hour limits with the latest Claude Code build? I wasn't doing anything extensive - had a few Opus agents running concurrently, one with a few Opus subagents. None doing anything that would burn an entire 5-hour limit in almost no time. Based on past observations of the kind of load I was producing, I should have been able to run for at least 4 hours before hitting the 5-hour limit. Nothing in any of the agents looked amiss, nothing was running Fable (and my Fable limit looks more or less untouched).

This genuinely seems like an error, not agents gone wild. Anyone else experiencing this right now?

Not sure what's happening. I use models strategically and rarely hit session limits despite doing a TON of work with the tools. But for the past two days, my session limit hits EXTREMELY QUICK. Anyone else experiencing this?

Doubly confused because in my usage tab it says "Your limits are temporarily boosted." I'm experiencing the opposite of a boost though.

so the company makes most money thru enterprises, and yet fable is overkill. Has Anthropic hit the ceiling for its biggest customer share then
