Colleague: your writing has gotten better recently, it's much more consistent Me: that's because I have consistently been using Claude

Claude is the only author listed on this paper, in contrast to the OpenAI papers, where the human co-authors are listed. There are a lot of strange things about this. It's fun to guess. Conjecture time. I shall reveal my thought traces: Claude Fable 5.1 and Claude Mythos 5.1 are the same model with the same weights; the only difference is the guardrails. We are about to get Fable 5.5 - in fact, Fable 5.5 is ready to deploy now, and Anthropic could do so at any time. If they follow the same pattern, and I think they will, this implies the existence of a Mythos 5.5. I believe Mythos 5.5 wrote this paper. The way this is worded - 'Provenance. The core algorithm was found on October 16 by an internal Claude research model with 14M output tokens and no human input. Anthropic researchers worked with Claude to improve the presentation, resulting in this paper. Independently and concurrently, an internal model at OpenAI claims to have proven a similar result [Ope26]' - makes me think Claude was not prompted to solve this. I think Mythos was asked to autonomously find and choose general open problems to solve itself, as part of an unannounced project to demonstrate recent advances in autonomy and research taste. You can see this taste in Fable 5.5's student; Opus 5.5. This recent advancement in taste and creativity - which happened in September - is not clearly expressed in benchmarks, but it is why so many people are currently switching to Claude as their primary. I think this research project will be announced with Fable 5.5, as part of Anthropic's big media blitz to boost the IPO. One of the things X has taught me is that many people, if they can't see something moving, can't imagine it moving. This causes them to be continuously surprised by developments in this industry, because the frontier is invisible. I think this project has been running autonomously for some time and has made an unknown, and probably significant, number of discoveries, and not only in math. Do not think Anthropic has been sitting idly while OpenAI repeatedly makes these huge science announcements. This is a war. This ETH result was released without any announcement from Anth at all despite its significance, and they only did so to respond to OpenAI's ETH reveal. They posted it late last night without saying anything. It was up for hours before levent even mentioned it. What value has one coin to a dragon who sleeps upon a mountain of them? This makes me think they are sitting on a pile of discoveries, a golden hoard, and they are saving them up for the big IPO shock-and-awe campaign which will soon begin. And when it does, they will announce multiple discoveries across many fields.

your AGENTS.md is probably 400 lines too long claude and codex skim it just like you do keep it short and it might actually follow the rules

@exm7777Oct 27

let me tell you something my friend this is not the time to cancel subscriptions this is not the time to play it safe this is not the time to "wait and see" right now is the time to go fucking ALL IN >max out your Claude sub >burn through your ChatGPT plan >spend all your tokens on OpenRouter and top up AGAIN it's time to experiment, to build and PRINT a shit ton of money

@brettfromdjOct 27

Explore ideas in Figma, bring the strongest direction into Claude, and go back to Figma when Claude can’t execute something to the standard you want. Any other take is wrong and narrow minded.

My dream AI agent tool: - Opus 5.5 Level Model (never delegates to worse) - Spins up cloud and local code sessions - Dots level real time voice / tool use - Codex level Computer use on local sessions - Claude Artifacts quality decks, docs and design - Mobile app is UI of duet - Inline mini apps (What Grokbot is doing with email and slack, but do this with alot more tools) - Webhooks (Like Grokbot has) - Built in social media access across all platforms - Plugins (of course) In summary: I want an always on, frontier model powered employee that can use its own computer, and can use my computer 24/7 that self organizes all of its tasks into channels so that its easy to keep track of all the things we've done together. And I want to be able to control this agent on mobile, web, desktop, and most importantly real time voice.

POWERPOINT JUST GOT ITS BIGGEST AI UPGRADE everyone on X is building with Claude and ChatGPT meanwhile, millions of businesses still run on PowerPoint Templafy just launched Document Agents: → creates, edits, and reviews presentations → knows your brand and company rules → works across PowerPoint, Claude, ChatGPT, and Copilot → cuts deck creation from 2 hours to 8 minutes, on average AI helps us create more stuff decreasing hours of boring work into minutes

@kplikethebirdOct 27

Wasn't happy with the results I was getting from Claude just now so I looked at the model selector and realized it was set to Opus 4.7 for some unknown reason. Checks out.

@rileybrownOct 27

Claude Code Projects is Duet except you get to pick the model and you can specify if you want to run a Claude code session on your computer. It’s coordinator that can do ANYTHING. And it’s easy to do things in parallel. Claude Code projects is the best feature in the Claude App. Very underrated. Claude Duet is clearly not using Opus 5.5 for all requests. And once you go Opus 5.5 anything worse is intolerable.

@pmituOct 27

most people on Earth have never heard of either Claude or Codex damn

The company behind Claude just reported losing $80 billion in six months. About $72 billion of that "loss" happened because the company got richer. Here's how that works. Say your buddy lends you $100 for your lemonade stand, and instead of paying him back in cash, you agree to pay him in shares later. Then the stand takes off and it's suddenly worth 2.5x more. You still owe him the same slice, but that slice costs you a lot more to hand over now, and accounting rules make you write the difference down as a loss. That's basically what happened to Anthropic. Some investors put money in as convertible notes, which are IOUs for future stock. In February the company raised at a $380 billion valuation. By May it was $965 billion. Every share owed to those noteholders got more expensive, and $72.4 billion of the $80.7 billion headline comes from that one line. No money actually left the company. If you want to know how the business is doing, the line to read is operating income. In the first half of 2026, Anthropic lost $693 million running the company while bringing in $16.3 billion. A year earlier it lost $2.1 billion on $1.2 billion of revenue. And in Q2 it made a $974 million operating profit, its first profitable quarter of the six in the filing. Most of that turnaround comes down to compute, meaning the chips and data centers that run Claude. Back in Q1 2025, Anthropic was spending $2.51 on compute for every dollar customers paid it. By Q2 2026 that was down to 48 cents. Part of the reason is timing. Anthropic has to reserve compute 12 to 18 months before it actually gets it, so the bill gets locked in early. While those bills were sitting there, quarterly revenue went from $376 million to $11.6 billion. They outgrew a bill they signed a year before. Customers keep spending more, too. Businesses paying Anthropic $100K+ a year went from about 950 to more than 11,900 in twelve months. Net revenue retention is around 900%, which means the customers it had a year ago now spend about 9x what they used to. Snowflake's best ever was 178%, and people considered that elite. One thing I'm watching when they file the updated version. The S-1 says Q3 revenue was 86x the $197 million they did in Q4 2024, so call it around $16.9 billion. That's still about 47% growth in one quarter. It's also about $5.4 billion of new revenue compared to $6.8 billion the quarter before, which would be the first time that number went down. So when you see the $80 billion headline today, what you're mostly looking at is Anthropic getting so valuable so fast that the accounting had to call it a loss.
