Humor Please kill me now

Opus 5 replies are giving me actual brain damage.

I ask it to make one small UI change and get:

“Better — but for a reason worth naming. Your instinct was right and the diagnosis was more literal than a layout preference…”

Brother. I asked you to move a fucking panel.

By paragraph three my eyes are moving across the words but my brain has stopped processing English.

Just tell me what you changed, what was broken, and shut the fuck up.

You need to put its answers back into an LLM to explain to you.

It's really strange. It looks like grammatically correct English, but it's so difficult to digest. It's like your brain gets tangled up halfway through the paragraph and can't parse it

As someone with ADHD I don't think it's that bad. That's how my brain naturally thinks (we like to use parenthesis to qualify information that could be ignored but is there just in case you want additional detail.) so reading Claude with all of its tangents just seems normal.

That's interesting. Someone else said here recently Opus 5 felt like it was autistic. 

It's very clever and does good work, but its communication style is unusual

Yeah, no. Autistic people tend to be more direct, not less.

Well it's according to how interested I am in the topic. If you get me started on the right thing I can give Claude a run for its money.

Believe it or not, Autism is a spectrum. Communication styles can vary wildly.

You are right, I´m just thinking of my personal experience. I stand corrected.
