>Opus 4.5 "seems to be able to vibe code forever" I've found this to be very true. Much more to come here but basically you can set-and-forget this model as it works on coding task for you in the background. Feels like we hit a step change.

BREAKING NEWS: @AnthropicAI just dropped Claude Ops 4.5!! It is by FAR the best coding model I've ever used. We've been testing it internally @every for the last few days, and it is an absolute paradigm shift for any kind of coding task. It extends the horizon of what you can vibe code The current generation of new models—Anthropic’s Sonnet 4.5, Google’s Gemini 3, or OpenAI’s Codex Max 5.1—can all competently build a minimum viable product in one shot, or fix a highly technical bug autonomously. But eventually, if you kept pushing them to vibe code more, they’d start to trip over their own feet: The code would be convoluted and contradictory, and you’d get stuck in endless bugs. We have not found that limit yet with Opus 4.5—it seems to be able to vibe code forever. Takes working in parallel to a whole new level because it's far better at planning and coding, it can work with more autonomy—meaning you can do more in parallel without breaking anything . @kieranklaassen worked on 11 different projects in six hours—and had good results on all of them. Great at design iteration Opus 4.5 is incredibly skilled at iterating through a design autonomously using an MCP like Playwright. previous models would lose the thread after a few cycles, or say a design was done when it wasn't. Opus 4.5 is incredible at autonomously iterating until a design is pixel perfect. we have a full 4,000 word vibe check on @every right now with everything we tested: every.to/vibe-check/vib…

Introducing Claude Sonnet 4.5. The best coding model in the world combined with the best character of any model I've seen.

@AIadventure3 @btibor91 Yes. This is what it means. However chatgpt is not a very good agent and stops the agentic loop too often.

@btibor91 I wonder if developer mode would mean u can use MCP in regular chats and not just Deep Research.

ChatGPT web app changes added recently - New "Proactivity" section and mentions of "Gift" in Personalization settings (hidden for now) - Canva is the next official ChatGPT deep research connector ("Allow ChatGPT deep research to read Canva designs.") - New "Developer mode" for ChatGPT Connectors ("Developer mode is a powerful feature that allows you to add unverified connectors and access them in ChatGPT. Use it with caution.") - New warning about "Potentially Malicious Content Detected" ("This webpage contained hidden instructions that may be attempting to extract sensitive information. You should only continue if you're sure this content is safe.") with an option to "Mark safe and continue" or "Don't mark safe"

@jeremyphoward I think the better question to ask would be "do you consume any GMO foods". The results would be a more honest view of what people actually think. Then follow up with why. Actions speak louder than words.

@btibor91 This is just the dumbest direction to take. MCP is good locally, remote is a deathtrap. And trying to manage them all yourself is even more stupid.

Dave Ramsey’s investment strategy is pretty straightforward. He recommends a 4-fund portfolio: • 25% - $VUG (growth) • 25% - $VO (mid-cap) • 25% - $VB (small-cap) • 25% - $VXUS (international) For the average investor, is this a good portfolio?

@SomyaThakker @RayDalio Human history repeats itself because of the human Operating System. Getting out of the messes we have created as a species will require understanding how to work with this OS (which we can change) more than understanding why we have this OS (which we cannot change)

@RayDalio You have never talked about what those archetypal cycles actually are. What is causing history to rhyme (metaphysically)? Have you ever looked to astrology? I love all your books, and deeply respect you. Looking forward to your daily shares on the changing world order.

Starting today, in addition to sending out Principles of the Day for life and work, on some days I will mix in Principles of the Day for monitoring and dealing with the changing world order. I am doing this because the progression of the Big Cycle is reaching the point where watching it more closely is warranted. As you know, my approach for dealing with reality as it is unfolding is to study how it works and identify good principles for dealing with it. I build my understanding by studying many past cases, documenting how they worked, and then developing principles for dealing with them. Then I watch what is happening, reflecting on my frame of references from studying the past, and I use my principles and my thinking to make decisions. I also computerize my principles into decision rules and use the computer to collect the substantial amounts of data that reflects what is happening and converts that data into decisions based on my principles. I have found that most everything has happened repeatedly throughout history, so I view most everything as "another one of those.” I deal each “another one of those” in the way I just described. Of course, no case is exactly the same - as the saying goes "history rhymes" rather than repeats itself. In my book Principles for Dealing With the Changing World Order I provided detailed descriptions of how the world order has repeatedly changed and I provided a lot of principles for dealing with it. I described the five big forces that make up the Big Cycle (i.e, 1. the big cycle of money/credit/debt; 2. the big cycle of internal peace and conflict; 3. the big cycle of external peace and wars; 4. big acts of nature; and 5. big technology developments) and how they typically unfold and I provide many indicators that show which stage of each of these cycles, and, in turn, which stage of the Big Cycle, we are in. For example I describe why I believe that we are in stage 5 (on the brink of war) of the Big Cycle and what to look for to signal the slipping into stage 6 (war), which include things like "All-out wars typically occur when existential issues (ones that are so essential to the country’s existence that people are willing to fight and die for them) are at stake and they cannot be resolved by peaceful means” and “people dying in the fighting is the marker that almost certainly signifies the progression to the next and more violent state, which will continue until the winners and losers are clearly determined.” The wars that result from these conflicts between major powers make it clear which side gets its way and has supremacy in subsequent matters. I believe that by providing these perspectives and principles for watching the Big Cycle unfold, we can together watch how history rhymes so that we can deal with its changes better than if we didn't do this.

@ShaanVP This is good. I would add "what are my alternatives" A good decision is the process of choosing the best option among many, not deciding yes/no on one. Best book on decision making - Decisive, by the Heath brothers.

Today is my first day at @a16z, as their new podcast host! My job: to cover the top people, businesses, and industries shaping the future. If I do my job right, we should all have a clearer picture of what's coming and how we can get involved. Who should we definitely have on?

@MichaelJNovotny Good for you Michael. A lot of people miss this point. I left corporate Jan 2021 to bootstrap. I ran 1000 miles that year. 4x any previous year for me. It helped in so many ways. Keep it up!

Part of the deal I made with myself quitting my job was improving my health. This week was a small step in that direction. I actually did some fitness related thing everyday. 🎉 Sad I've neglected it. 2022 will be about generating health and wealth. Who's with me!? 😎
