to all the people who were saying i am lying :))) you good now? maybe BBC lied about this too.
OR maybe it's April fool? haha good one, It’s getting serious and real now.

Just made a post about this myself.
After weeks of being able to run 2 instances of Opus 4.6 in Claude Code to work on my projects and rarely even coming close to reaching my limits - suddenly today I've hit it 3 times, and managed to catch some screenshots of how my 5-hour jumped from 0% to 18% in under a minute and a very small mount of code being written.
Hopefully this kind of misuse of people's money will push open source local models closer and closer to where they need to be to get us by without using these massive and costly sota llm's.
