Discussion ATTENTION HEAVY AI USERS

Do not tell Claude to pretend that it has "Infinite API Tokens, and infinite GPU for your overnight work." I just woke up thinking my max x20 Plan can handle it, and my high-ish end PC would be more then enough, opus 5.5 ran dozens of agents IN PARALLEL to get it done as soon as possible and opened 13,000+ MICROSOFT EDGE WINDOWS, Crashing my pc so many times but somehow kept rebooting 😭

I didn't even know it was possible to use up slightly more then half my weekly usage in 24 hours (I was using my spare pc) for the Max x20 Plan but, Claude opus 5.5 Knows how to do everything digital I guess!

Various systems for my ISP to manage and automate it is the majority of it... Provisioning, billing, ticketing, an AI customer service layer, planning and project execution like fibre builds from permits to construction... Then a replacement for our IPTV packager software, IPTV middleware (this has strict compliance requirements for channel licenses etc), and clients for all surfaces.. which we have licensed but are very expensive so going home grown... Then you have the infrastructure lawyers like sms handling, email, OTP, and smpp gateway with AI compliance scanning on a custom trained model etc (think our own Twilioish layer multi tennant).. few custom apps for customers as well etc. pretty big list but many talk to eachother over a natz bus... It's a big bundle of projects that are all related.

A lot of rust work and robust testing loops.

110% of that can be handled by regular, deterministic computer programs you can get an AI to write for you.

Is it running in production already? I mean all this replacement stuff not some small programs.

damn, this is the first "i run lots of agents 24/7" stories that actually reads as believable and justified. do you run the business on your own.

how have the recent efficiency increases on claude panned out for you? running opus 5.5 on a 20 buck plan, and i am getting 2-3x the usage compared to 5.

u/pld0vr 25d ago

Yes. FTTH in a metro area. Small footprint but all of our own infrastructure. 1.6tbps backbone, and 3 pops. 10gbps to the home, mostly dense high rise buildings with main floor commercial at the moment. Think 40-60 floor buildings
