Introducing Claude Opus 4.8 (www.anthropic.com)

OpenAI still leads in agentic terminal coding, but by less.

Claude can plan the work and then run hundreds of parallel subagents in a single session (and with Opus 4.8, the agents can run for even longer)

That’s one way to turn profitable before the IPO, I guess. Goodbye tokens.

I feel like it gets more intrinsically interesting the better it gets, even when the initial shock has faded a bit, but tastes vary of course.

The LLM creators won’t shut up about what we can use it for and why. Some of those use cases actually work fairly well, like coding, so that part doesn’t really trigger any alarms.

What I don’t see is how they intend to make actual money when open weight models catch up in the next months, but if we can lose the frontier labs and keep the current abilities available that’s fine by me (apart from the whole “possible collapse of Western economy”, that is)
