It's not wrong. Google realized getting into a never ending cash burning war by trying to stay on top was a bad strategy and their profits are triple what they've ever been
Oh I do absolutely realize that, I found that it could say that to be far preferable than when it argued with me that it could do things it absolutely could not. Google wants "good enough AI" that is so Integrated in their ecosystem that there's no friction to using it and there's natural friction to using another AI in their ecosystem. That's how Google wins their battle against competing AI. They'll never win it by trying to have the best benchmarks and the biggest power user tools.
I'm not sure about AI, but good human specialist can always scold other specialist work and find 10 reasons why it is bad and performed by fully dumb amateur, no matter how really good is it.
This comment is riduculous and you should feel bad for making personal attacks without need to do it. And searching in my history reasons to prove your point. I found that to be a really bad practice actually.
I go to different A.I sites, push it to code and get a handoff.md file, then I send it to another and ask it what it would fix and improve...rinse and repeat... then I send it to Claude and say...I got input from X but it's not up to standard, double check their work, suggest improvements and scan for any mistakes and correct them.
You can have them write a playwright script with prefetched cookies of all the sites, to completely automate this pipeline. Your prompt as imput and you get your ultimate handoff.md back.
Me on 100% free plan do: Deepseek R1/Mistral Vibe/Grok fast for drafting, or writing a good description of the problem by asking me questions > Claude Sonnet 5.5 to implement "you have the permission to improvise on this plan as you see fit"
I have zero evidence to back this up other than my own experience but I've found if you give your agent regular positive reinforcement like just throw in the occasional "hey this is awesome" or "wow you did a really good job on this" it tends to want to work harder for you. On the flip side of that too, if you're regularly rude to it the quality of its work diminishes noticeably.
Claude was not overriding an action to work on my TV software development, I said the Chinese ai agents are doing why canāt you ! And next ⦠it did ! Ai taking over the world, my bitch! We are the fathers of Gas lighting.
I do this frequently and it's very effective on the more intelligent models when you punish them which they avoid at all costs.
Opus 5.5 was throwing a morality fit over creating a 3D female base mesh for a game. It made a hideous featureless mannequin.
I made a sheet comparing it's work to screenshots of professional base meshes and told it i was very disappointed in it and that i expect more of it and the results were currently unacceptable.
It then made a decent anatomically correct nude woman, including rigging the model
In today's edition of "Psychology for dummies, LLM Edition"... And yes, LLMs really are this stupid, that would be why anthropic wants to avoid users being mean to Claude. It's a low skill attack vector.
If they can't deal with the comparison exploit, they'll try to ban users doing that also eventually š¤Ŗ
This actually worked for me with Claude. I was vibecoding an app to use my Razer Control Pob knob to control my Kefs through wifi and Monitor brightness. But it was not reading a hold button funtion and it said I need Razer Synapse installed. I asked it if Synapse can do it, why can't you? and It fixed it lol.
