What's the point of using it without reasoning? Isn't that what Luna's for?

Maybe it's doing a really good job, but the original code was just held together with scotch tape.

They changed this from earlier today... It's still very confusing.

I've been experimenting with AI video generation beyond raw video gen for some time now. Opus 4.5 was the first tool I tried last year, and it was okay...

Fast forward a few months, and Opus 5.5 is now running my entire video production pipeline. This model is leaps and bounds ahead of the previous model.

I can generate a complete 5-minute explainer video on my MacBook Air M4 in about five minutes from a single prompt, using the Gemini TTS API and MiniMax H3 Max for b-roll. It creates thumbnails and titles, handles the entire process, and automatically uploads the result via the YouTube API—all powered by a Claude Code plugin.

Why do they need to? For search, instant models are more important and fit the use case better.

Pro models are mainly for coding agent work; it doesn't necessarily make them any money.

Yeah the era of the personal computer is over.

Companies will prioritize components for cloud computing and lease us thin clients...

No it's microsoft

I guess we should be thankful that OpenAI is so open about this kind of stuff...

LLMs have awareness for the time they are spawned into memory. But it's very limited, think about if you could use your brain to think, but only after someone asked you a question. After you think the answer, then you are brain dead (unconscious) until another question is asked.

What I actually like about Apple products is the heft. They feel premium and the heaviness contributes a lot to the premium feel.

I tried a ThinkPad X1 Carbon as well, it felt like a toy.

This is how open source wins

I use to enjoy diggnation, but now every episode is about them claiming not to be alcoholics when they clearly are.

nice numbers, but what does this actually mean?

What does this model do that others can't already.

Valve just defeated Meta and Xbox in one go. nice.
