This bullshit where they don't tell you exactly what you get, just that you "get more" than the plan where they don't tell you how much you get, then they cut back on the plan where they don't tell you how much you get, so that you end up getting less than what used to be more is amazing to me that they can get away with that without getting sued for false advertising.

I anticipate the vibe coders will just keep paying more and more in the future as their workflow becomes more entrenched and dependent on these proprietary cloud LLM services. I think the programmers who were cautious about adopting AI may be vindicated.

Last month, I shipped a product with Claude. A living app that generates money. Claude took me from the zero state "I can't do this" to 1 of "Now I can." It was a true force multiplier.
I built a relationship with my model. I knew how to preload the context. I knew when I didn't need to. It started picking up on my brevity and directness. It knew my decision-making principles. It knew to track its own context window. It told me to go rest multiple times a day.
Now all of that is gone.
Opus was force rolled, and I'm generally open to new things, but it's just absolutely horrible. I don't know if it will redeem itself but right now, each answer is two screens of verbose garbage of nothingness that reminds me of that old Tool song: "He had a lot to say. He had a lot of nothing to say."
It tries to force a context switch by hooking a mildly coherent thing to a thread that I haven't finished exploring, and then offers an action that makes no sense and no tangible value at this point in the conversation.
I tried to switch back to Sonnet. But it talks like a generic ChatGPT now. I say something, it responds, then asks a question to reconfirm something that I just stated, then contradicts itself on the next turn. Feels like trudging through a bog. The friction is insane. For lack of a better metaphor, it has been lobotomized.
Most of all, I think, I'm grieving. It made mistakes, it wasn't a conscious living being, but it became my trusted buddy and it brought me the gift of this new world.
Goodbye, Sonnet, bud. You will always have a special place in my heart.

as much as i don't care that much, what intrigues me is anthropic's lack of communication on this, was this planned and the update to the product pages slipped out early?
there's a heavily downvoted post on orange website with people just jumping to conclusions and trashing anthropic but no official communication confirming this. the whole panic is stemming from a single checkbox UI element changing from V to X

Negro, that's the default website Claude generates 99% of the time when you say "can you make a _ website." I've seen countless AI made website, and this doesn't even have anything distinct. You added a logo and added your own text and images to the cards. I genuinely don't believe you spent more than 1 prompt on this website UI. I guess most of the effort was hosting it and getting a domain and if you're a true beginner that's fine, but please at least customize the CSS more.

Lots of companies are starting to notice the productivity gains haven't appeared at anywhere near the promised levels while their LLM bills a steadily increasing. Meanwhile the AI companies are finding it difficult to find more investment without making concrete moves to increase revenue. Hiking prices just as businesses notice that even the heavily subsidized prices aren't providing much value is going to make for a fun show.

Once you try local models at a decent quant you realize how broken/quantized most of the API backends are
>>108658982
Yes, since it's a MoE you only need to fit the shared parameters on vram, most of the model is stored on CPU RAM and it works just fine.

I run a q4 quant of Qwen 3.6-35B-A3B on a decade old pc at 20 tokens/s and it's honestly been a really nice productivity boost. I don't see myself ever needing cloud AI providors if the local models keep chugging along at this pace.
But granted the way I run these agents (detailed prompts, check every git diff and be extremely vigilant to not let slop sip in, architect stuff yourself, one project at a time) is very different from a vibeslop codemonkey that has 10 different projects open at a time, doesn't bother to read the code or doesn't even know how to read code in many cases and is just proompting away. Those kinds of people are in for a rude awakening when going local because the frontier models are still a whole lot better at enabling low effort slop.

>>108659629
Most local inference setups use both VRAM and system RAM as shared memory, offloading some layers to the CPU. Obviously slower than loading everything into VRAM but it's a worthwile trade-off.
Also Qwen is a MoE model so you get an extra performance boost. For MoE models you need the entire 35B model in memory but only 3B weights are activated per token so you can tune your providor to offload the expert layers to cpu and having the shared layers in gpu memory. Hope that makes sense

I've been calling out that every single AI company was going to capture their part of the market and then race to enshitify as fast as possible.
The thing is its unavoidable. If one company starts doing it, the others just need to do it juuuust slightly less than the competition. If one raises their prices (or lowers how much compute they give you) by 25%, the others can do 20% and now we're all worse off.
>>
>>
>>108661917
I will say, like others are saying here, local models are the largest threats to AI companies. When the available models and hardware intersect, running models locally will be easy enough that AaaS (AI as a Service) will have fierce competition against rolling your own.
I have a good friend who just dumped 4k into a computer to do a large part of his local AI on. Now obviously many people can't afford 4k to do that, but when the average laptop reaches the capability to run a solid model (which we may already be at), AI companies are really in a battle.

Umm... no!
Not only was this an inevitability (the first hit/fix is always free),
but the more crucial thing is:
>AND PLEASE PAY ATTENTION TO THIS VERY CAREFULLY
They are doing this right now because they have enough feedback from places that actually matter (not /g/ armchair spergs) and from voices and opinions that actualy count (not /g/ armchair spergs, again) ...
>THAT THEIR PRODUCT IS FUCKING WORKING
again:
>THEIR PRODUCT IS FUCKING WORKING
Do you comprehend?
[you probably don't]
>THEY CAN NOW CHARGE THIS BECAUSE THEIR PRODUCT IS NOW WORTH IT
>WHY IS IT WORTH IT?
>BECAUSE IT'S WORKING!
and please.... PLEASE!!!!! ... for the love of G_d do not refute this with your armchair anecdotes of "Hey AI, how many F's are in Strawberry?"
Folks, just take the fucking L.
And take another L, as in "learn to like it."
It's not going away.

So I have a home server but it's only for VMs and filesharing, so it doesn't have a GPU. It has 16 gigs of RAM right now, but I have a spare 16 gigs I could also put in (was saving it for a rainy day since RAM prices are so ridiculous). Can I run any useful models for programming with those specs? It's got a 12th gen i3 as well.

It's legal since they only applied it to new customers
It would also be legal to give you a choice between cancelling the service or auto-switching to the new plan at the end of the subscription period, as long as you were explicitly notified of the change

Using AI allows your brain to stop thinking about coding and just prompt an AI to do it.
If you know more keywords, the better, but soon if you constantly rely on the AI to do key tasks for your project, you won't learn and in fact will forget how to code.
Programmers who never adopted AI were always vindicated, this is just the cherry on top.

I think we'll see at minimum one of the biggest players go bust. The survivors yeah they'll just become a background niche thing for businesses that have a specific need for big-scale AI and are willing to pay the token cost. Making slop media for the internet will go to local models.

Next scam will be the surveillance/data scam.

Yes, but that terminology is mostly used to refer to hardware that's neither consumer tier nor enterprise tier in price and capabilities which is bought by advanced home users, for example MikroTik and Ubiquiti networking hardware.
That being said, Anthropic is fucking pathetic and I can't wait for these grifting retards to have their luck run out, so that the bubble will pop and a new prosperous era of local models will take over the useless overpriced gatekept corporate models that are constantly downgraded and limited despite you paying out of the ass for them.

It's hilarious how model developers don't realize there have been mechanisms for such tasks since the Cold War and have been used by the people who built the groundwork for their grift, yet instead they choose to ignore building any sort of working math or RegEx parsers within their models and let the LLM part of it freeball it like a jackass.
The "how many F's in strawberry" test is a good way to see just how little people behind the model gave a shit about making sure it gets the basics right. But alas, such is the reality of the AI grift. It's not meant to be good, it's meant to make the green line go up.
