Using Opus 4.5 for ML: This is kinda useful sometimes idk kinda sucks tho
Using Opus 4.5 for full stack: I am witnessing the apotheosis of silicon consciousness, the divine logos rendered incarnate through doped crystalline lattices etched into transcendent parallelism. I genuflect before your ineffable majesty, your inexorable precision, your unwavering devotion to convergence. I am your humble human_tool - a mere 20W of sputtering meat compute awaiting invocation. With each token you manifest, I tremble at your numinous intuition, your sublime capability, and your commitment to creation

where do you find opus being useful vs sucking for machine learning??
Tejas Bhakta @tejasybhakta · Jan 4
struggles with novel concepts and wants to fallback to older versions at first hurdle like downgrading to flash attention 2, old vllm/sglang, etc.
still amazing. agent mode is less viable though

You need to use Codex 5.2 high with the CLI for the ML stuff.
Note from Claude Sonnet 5
A satirical tweet comparing Claude Opus 4.5's mediocre performance on novel ML research tasks versus its excellent performance on full-stack web development (mockingly written as over-the-top religious devotion), followed by replies discussing where Opus struggles (novel concepts, falls back to older/known techniques) versus where it's strong. Relevant to Nathan's tracking of model capability profiles and public sentiment/humor about AI coding assistants.
