> "Where Claude excels:"

Am I reading a Claude generated summary here?

I thought it sounded more like an ad for Claude written by Anthropic:

> "This was surprising, but fits with Claude's playful personality and flexible disposition."

  • This sounds as expected to me as a heavy user of Opus. Claude absolutely has a "personality" that is a lot less formal and more willing to "play along" with more creative tasks than Codex. If you want an agent that's prepared to just jump in, it's a plus. If you want an agent that will be careful, considered and plan things out meticulously, it's not always so great - I feel that when you want Claude to do reptitive, tedious tasks, you need to do more work to prevent it from getting "bored" and try to take shortcuts or find something else to do, for example.

      Is this sentance seriously about a computer? Have we gone so far that computers wont just do what we tell them to anymore?

Yes I believe so. Also things like forcing a "key insight" summary after the excels vs struggles section.

I would take any descriptions like "comprehensive", "sophisticated" etc with a massive grain of salt. But the nuts and bolts of how it was done should be accurate.
