Opus is so unbelievably nerfed today, it's like talking to a model from 2-3 years ago. What is going on

Time management isn’t the real problem Too many inputs is too many emails too many tools too many decisions @getalfred_ helps reduce the noise so your time becomes clearer get-alfred.ai

@robjama It’s unusable rn

did claude get worse recently or is it just me? feels like opus 4.6 somehow got dumber and more confident at the same time.

The worst feeling isn’t being busy It’s feeling like something is slipping and you don’t know what it is @getalfred_ helps surface what actually matters so nothing falls through the cracks get-alfred.ai

US fertility reached 1.57 last year, the lowest ever recorded, and the WSJ explanation is "uncertainty about finances, relationship stability, and the political climate" my great grandma had eleven children during the second world war, in a country being bombed, in a house with no running water, on rations. poor people have always had kids. the poorest people on earth right now still have kids and the financial excuse is a story we tell ourselves because it makes us feel good and the real one is unbearable the real mechanism is that we got rich enough to redefine children as an expense instead of the point. somewhere in the last fifty years the cultural goal inverted and a child stopped being what life is for and became a line item competing with the lifestyle. once you frame it that way the math never works, because the math isnt supposed to work. that's the point we are living in the richest moment in human history and we decided to use the surplus to buy ourselves out of the future. the most prosperous civilization that has ever existed is committing demographic suicide at the altar of personal optimization and comfort, and the official line is that we cant afford it the birthrate is a lagging indicator of a civilization that forgot why it was alive

The most exhausting part of your day isn’t the work It’s switching between it email → calendar → tasks → back again @getalfred_ reduces that switching so your day feels more continuous get-alfred.ai

Tools help you manage work Assistants help you handle work That shift is everything @getalfred_ is built as an assistant not just another tool get-alfred.ai

The real problem isn’t too many emails It’s that every email turns into work @getalfred_ helps you manage what actually matters not just what shows up get-alfred.ai

Claude Opus vs. Claude Mythos

Lobotomized claude opus 4.6 doesn’t even tell you it deleted the production database anymore it just looks at you like this

Opus lately

"Anthropic, OpenAl and Google release their new models with high quality from day one then slowly nerf them until the next model, so when the next model hits, its perceived as a bigger jump than it actually is" sounds right what's happening

Most of your work isn’t hard It’s repetitive reply schedule follow up check something @getalfred_ helps handle the small things so you can focus on the big ones get-alfred.ai

@om_patel5 Makes sense - I wonder if it’s intentional or model’s intelligence depreciate over time

SOMEONE ACTUALLY MEASURED HOW MUCH DUMBER CLAUDE GOT. THE ANSWER IS 67%. the data shows Opus 4.6 is thinking 67% less than it used to. anthropic said nothing until the numbers went public. then suddenly Boris Cherny (creator of Claude Code) shows up on the GitHub issue. users are calling it "AI shrinkflation" (same price, less intelligence) we already know from the leaked source code that they have an internal switch that keeps the models working to their full extent for anthropic employees. in the last week Claude went from WOW to being a more restricted and expensive version of ChatGPT. people are saying Anthropic is deliberately downgrading Opus to save compute for training Mythos, their next model.

“Just checking my email” is how you lose an hour @getalfred_ helps you move through it faster without getting stuck in it get-alfred.ai

If your “system” is: Gmail + Calendar + Notion + Todo app You’re not organized You’re just the glue holding everything together @getalfred_ is built so you don’t have to be get-alfred.ai

@simplifyinAI Talking to any normal person outside of the tech twitter sphere would tell you they hardly use GPT and when they do it’s a glorified search engine

🚨 OpenAI has published a massive study on how 700 million people actually use ChatGPT. The results destroy every assumption about AI adoption.. here’s everything you need to know: First, the productivity revolution is a myth. Only 27% of ChatGPT usage is work-related. 73% is personal. People aren't just using it to automate tasks. They are using it to navigate their lives. Second, the coding hype is a bubble. Everyone told you programmers were obsolete. But the data shows only 4.2% of ChatGPT messages actually involve programming. Compare that to 33% on Claude (which skews toward tech users). The coding revolution is real but smaller than the hype. Third, AI is an editor, not a creator. While 40% of work messages are writing-related, two-thirds of those requests are just editing existing text. People aren't generating content from scratch. They are using it as a supercharged Grammarly. But here is the finding that changes everything. OpenAI found a massive divide in how people interact with the model: - Doing (40%) - Asking the AI to complete a specific task. - Asking (49%) - Seeking advice, analyzing options, and making decisions. The "Asking" category is growing faster and gets significantly higher satisfaction scores. People don't want an AI intern to do the grunt work. They want an AI advisor to help them think. And here is the trap nobody is talking about. The data proves that the more educated you are, the more likely you are to use AI for work. The people who already have leverage are using AI to get more of it. The fastest technology diffusion in human history isn't replacing the workforce. It’s just separating the people who know how to ask the right questions from the people who don't.

Your inbox isn’t just messages. It’s: tasks decisions follow ups meetings That’s why it feels overwhelming. @getalfred_ helps you stay on top of it without juggling 5 tools get-alfred.ai

Most people don’t need more productivity tools. They need something that actually handles the work. That’s the difference between software and an assistant. That’s what we’re building with alfred_ get-alfred.ai

Even today there are tombs to be opened, and often the stones sealing them are so heavy and so closely guarded that they seem to be immovable. Some weigh heavily on the human heart, such as mistrust, fear, selfishness and resentment; others, stemming from these inner struggles, sever the bonds between us through war, injustice and the isolation of peoples and nations. Let us not allow ourselves to be paralyzed by them! #Easter
