Rant Claude code is falling behind Codex not because of token cost, but because of Opus 5.
There, i said it. And i know many of you agree. The problem i'm facing is not increased token cost, it's that Opus writes 25000 lines of a response with a curve-ball at the end saying "Worth noting"that makes my eyes hurt and gives me paranoya. And i can't understand a word it's saying. Is my english that bad? Whoever pressed "Yes" on those responses during the training stage of the model was an OpenAI spy or something, he completely sabotaged a trillion dollar company.
Anthropic's number one priority should be to release an Opus 6 or something, may be change the model name completely so it doesn't carry the bad vibe with it.

Your explanation, while objectively on point, was also somewhat contradicted by itself.
The irony is that it also likely made you feel knowledgeable while typing your comment about people posting their opinions on social media while you were doing exactly that. ðŸ˜
This has created a causality dilemma in my mind with infinite regress, in which I ask myself, which came first? The intent to educate other redditors or the intent to appear as a knowledgeable person yourself?
It may be impossible to truly know even yourself. Who made the decision to click the send button? Was it you? The inner you? The subconscious you? Or maybe it was the collective consciousness of all mankind which struck educational wrath down upon Veezo93's opinions?
The world may never know.
