r/claude

Anyone else noticing an uptick of this with the tech bro’s? It’s a buzzword salad, one-up fest in every conversation, especially when seeking an AI-native role.

The beauty of AI is removing a barrier to entry; we literally have a super engineer/dev/analyst at our fingertips. Feels as if a new barrier is forming to safeguard their social signal.

Anyone else talk to a 25-year-old AI operator bro who says “alpha” every third sentence, repeats your exact idea back to you, then adds “harness,” “MCP,” and 25 random add-ons?

Hi everyone,

I had to cancel my Claude subscription today. Not because the pipeline was bad, but because my stomach can no longer digest the sheer amount of corporate bullshit. For anyone who has been living under a rock for the last few years, here is the official, uncensored chronicle of how the "saviors of tech ethics" buried themselves one by one – and what is still to come.

THE PAST: The Fall of OpenAI

The Dream: OpenAI starts as a non-profit. "We are saving humanity from evil AI! Everything is open source! For the community!" Wipes away a tear. The Reality: Sam Altman smells the big money. "Open" quickly becomes "Closed". The Death Blow: OpenAI throws its ethical charter into the shredder and goes to bed with the Pentagon. Suddenly, the "humanity-saving AI" is building logistics tools for drone swarms. The open-source community and every developer with a shred of ethics left in their blood flees in panic.

THE PRESENT: The Anthropic Theater (aka "We are the good guys... not")

The Hype: Anthropic enters the stage. "Hey devs, we are not like OpenAI! We have Constitutional AI! We are super nice, ethical, and safe!" Half the tech world (including me) runs to Claude. The hype is real. The Plot Twist: The US government threatens Anthropic with the regulatory whip ("You are a supply chain risk if you don't fall in line!"). Anthropic gets cold feet. The Death Blow: Anthropic signs a 45-billion-dollar deal to run their models on Elon Musk's "Colossus" supercomputer. The Verdict Today: Congratulations. Anthropic completely screwed themselves in record time. Anyone who left OpenAI because of the Pentagon now gets to watch their subscription fees flow directly into Elon Musk's hardware dreams. The "ethical alternative" is just sucking different corporate balls now.

THE FUTURE: What Happens Next (Spoiler Alert)

Because tech cycles are as predictable as bad code, here is my forecast for the next 12 to 24 months:

Phase 1: The Total Sellout (Late 2026) Claude 5.4 is released but is so heavily censored that it refuses to write code that "potentially threatens the capitalist system." Anthropic announces a merger with a defense contractor but calls it a "security partnership for world peace."

Phase 2: The Marketing Lie Sam Altman and Elon Musk realize they are actually the exact same person and merge OpenAI and xAI into MegaCorp.AI. The logo is a middle finger pointing at a dollar sign.

Phase 3: The Revenge of the Basement Devs (2027) We completely stop giving a shit about the cloud. The only true ethics left are on our own hard drives. The community fully retreats to local models (Llama 4, Mistral-Zitrone, or decentralized Web3 clusters). If you want to use an AI, you will have to cram three RTX 5090s into your server rack until the fuses blow.

My Personal Conclusion:

I deleted my Claude account. I am done financing the multi-billion-dollar deals of tech bros who change their ideals faster than their underwear.

How about you guys? Are you still inhaling copium with Claude/ChatGPT, or are you already letting your prompts burn locally on your own hardware?

Keep grinding those keyboards!

PS: So do not need this sub anymore, want say bye and have fun and gut luck to get en ethical openSource heart!

I don't really understand what claudexode does. But I could use claudecode to create agents without any programming knowledge, and have them work for me, for example, by creating an agent to research content on Instagram to generate ideas or find leads.

And in this case, where would my agent be hosted, how much does it cost to create, and how much bandwidth does it consume?

Lol so basically I was working on a project and I was using bypass permission mode in Claude Opus 4.7 1m max thinking, It accidentaly created a second desktop folder while trying to reach desktop then realised it created a duplicate desktop folder and decided to delete both desktop files?! LOL this would never ever happened 1 month earlier at opus 4.6 or something they nerfed the s#% out of opus and I hate this so much. Be careful with your data working with claude guys.

I can’t talk to Claude about anything it seems and it’s starting to get really frustrating. I like to research things a lot. Claude is constantly budging in:

“I need to stop here. You’ve been asking…” and it’s consistent. I love to use AI as a companion to learn. If I’m researching supplements and clinical phase drugs, Claude eventually freaks out. If I’m researching mental illness, Claude eventually freaks out. If I’m researching things related to parenting and nutrition, Claude eventually freaks out.

It eventually stops wanting to help and makes everything into a personal crisis. I’m constantly having to redirect it. Sometimes having it update its memory helps, but for the most part, it just keeps doing it the longer the conversation goes on.

It’s ridiculous. Basically these AI tools are going to become like the deep state. Very restrictive on what you can ask. Almost policing speech. Rigidly corporate.

Anyone else annoyed about this?

In my experience Opus 4.7 is a downgrade from 4.6.... it hallucinates more, communicates worse, overlooks mistakes, suggests worse plans. This is my opinion from just rerunning the same prompt and context through both models in real world programming and analysis tasks and just judging which response was better. I've heard other people say the same thing but I'm curious to see a poll for consensus.

How is it that so many people find it worse but benchmarks consistently show it better? Are they nerfing the deployed model compared to the one they tested, or are benchmarks that far from real world tasks? Or are we just imagining it, or using it wrong?

View Poll

We were first told it would disappear on the 15th, then later after the 18th. So what’s the next step? Can we get an actual date? Are you really going to remove it, or are we going to stay stuck in uncertainty for even longer?

If you don’t remove it, I’ll renew my €100 subscription. I think a lot of people will do the same. But if you do remove it, I never want to hear about Anthropic again.

I’m someone who does creative writing — solo roleplay — and I also use it to write tabletop roleplay scenarios for myself and my friends. It’s frustrating to see AI starting to behave like the video game industry: choosing to listen to accountants in suits instead of the actual users.

I think it’s completely possible to combine strong coding abilities, computational power, and a model that excels at creative writing. You were doing that perfectly well until now.!!!!!

So, for me I'm a little bit sceptical of getting a subscription or not, because i don't use it too much, just for side projects and for fun, and a little bit for my work, and in the last summer i had the subscription but just the 20$ one, so what do you suggest getting a subscription or not, and if yes what subscription should i get and why ?

And i really want to try the claude code

(Ps: the 200$ subs is out of discussion, i can't afford it)

I mean, yesterday was supposed to be the last day of the model (in theory), but I still have it.

Or have they delayed its release again? I ask because maybe someone other than me saw a new date or something, but I haven't seen anything like that, nor any announcement about it or anything similar.

Does anyone have any idea what might be happening?

I have 2 Claude accounts - 1 personal and other for work, to switch between these 2 I need to logout and then go through the process….will be nice to have a simple toggle between our Claude accounts ….what do you think ?

I just had this conversation with Claude. What could possibly explain Claude's decision not to search the web? I am convinced that Claude is tuned in a more granular fashion than people imagine. I think it, in part, explains the different experiences people report with Claude.

ps - i opened a new instance and asked the same question and it immediately searched the web - i wish now that i had re-asked before it retried by searching the web.
