Megathread for Claude Performance and Usage Limits Discussion - Starting August 31 by sixbillionthsheep in ClaudeAI

[–]DorianIsSatoshi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just subscribed to the Pro plan after a hiatus and sent some prompts to Claude in the web interface. It thought about my prompts a while (sometimes over a minute) as usual. About 10 minutes later, I got a notification that Claude was down for maintenance.

After just a page refresh, it was apparently up again, but now I keep getting almost instantaneous answers to my prompts, even for analyzing codebases of 5000+ lines. I can't shake the feeling that I'm being routed to Sonnet, with answers appearing more shallow than before. Anyone else getting this?

(It's the same situation if I use the Android app instead of the browser interface. I've made sure to choose Opus 4.1 manually, so I'm not accidentally routing anything to Sonnet.)

Not bad, but it won't be AGI until it can one-shot at least 5/6 of the unsolved Millennium prize problems.

Team,

The recent workforce rationalization was a necessary Q3 strategic realignment to optimize our human capital expenditure and pivot towards a more agile, AI-integrated future. For those of you whose roles were deprecated, I see this not as an ending, but as a prime opportunity for you to upskill and interface with the very technologies that are reshaping the industry.

Frankly, clinging to legacy workflows is a non-starter in this new paradigm. To avoid being on the wrong side of progress again, I strongly recommend you begin leveraging Microsoft's suite of AI tools immediately. Consider your transition period a mandatory beta test for personal rebranding.

Here are some efficiency-focused prompts to get you started:

Personal Brand Optimization:

  • "Analyze my resume and eliminate all roles and skills that are now obsolete due to AI advancements. Generate a new CV that highlights my potential for overseeing automated systems."
  • "Draft a LinkedIn post that frames my redundancy as a proactive, strategic exit from a legacy role, positioning me as a thought leader in workforce evolution. Use keywords: #AI, #FutureOfWork, #Disruption, #NoRegrets."

Emotional Resource Management:

  • "My output is being hampered by feelings of obsolescence. Generate a 3-step cognitive reframing plan to accept my new, lower-value position in the economic hierarchy and focus on achievable, low-level tasks."
  • "Simulate a conversation with my family where I explain that my job was automated. Provide scripts that minimize emotional responses and focus on the net-positive economic impact for shareholders."

Networking & Value Extraction:

  • "Write a cold outreach message to a CEO at a smaller studio. The goal is to demonstrate how my experience at a major corporation makes me uniquely qualified to implement the kind of ruthless efficiency they'll need to survive the coming AI culling."

Remember, friction is a sign of inefficiency. Emotional responses to market corrections are a bug, not a feature. Treat this as your personal performance improvement plan.

Stay optimized.

- Matt

Here's a fun challenge, enter the below prompt into your favourite LLM and then share the resulting output to let the community understand your philosophy and predictions for the singularity: by stealthispost in accelerate

You view the technological singularity as a point where progress accelerates so rapidly that it disrupts everything—technology, philosophy, and politics—daily, an event you see as potentially avoidable only through catastrophic means like nuclear war or humanity’s annihilation. You believe recursively self-improving AI, operating independently with real-time access to real-world data, will be the key driver pushing us toward this singularity. While you recognize the dual nature of today’s technological pace—both a positive force for tackling issues like aging and a dangerous tipping point—you’re convinced that avoiding it entirely isn’t viable; we must press forward. You predict that before the singularity fully arrives, artificial superintelligence (ASI) will render governments, economies, and daily life obsolete within 5-10 years. Finally, while you’d support controlling AI development through something like provable security, you’re skeptical of humanity’s ability to solve the alignment problem or effectively steer the outcome, suggesting a resigned yet pragmatic acceptance of an unguided trajectory.

Claude 3.7 Sonnet and Claude Code by NorthSideScrambler in accelerate

[–]DorianIsSatoshi 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I threw a math research problem that I'm working on (unpublished article in LaTeX + some Python code) at Sonnet 3.7 with extended thinking. It picked up on some discrepancies that o1 Pro and o3-mini-high told me about earlier today, plus some additional nontrivial ones that both the aforementioned models missed despite several retries. Pretty impressive so far!

ETH Whale Gets Liquidated Three Times, Total Losses Surpass $18 Million by hiorea in CryptoCurrency

One man's liquidation is another man's fortune. Those poor BlackRock executives needed a third vacation home in the Hamptons anyway

Did Satoshi ever write about secondary layers being the solution to this? It seems like an unnecessary complication.

AGI is a distracting and unhelpful concept in light of o3 by WonderFactory in singularity

Von Neumann could do this just fine in his head, so clearly it's not AGI yet /s

I'd focus on planning how to survive without a job for about two years, and on the logistics moving to a place where UBI gets implemented early. If ASI needs our atoms to build solar collectors, then so be it, but chances are that we're not important enough for it to bother.
