Hi HN, just want to rant and see if anybody can relate.The product is not the same as i signed up for few month ago and the same shift i ve experienced with Claude Code on Opus 4.6-4.7The best way to describe the difference is you hire a reliable intelligent tech lead who gives a shit and in some time you eventually get over-confident junior dev that acts as destructive token burner.No thinking during the process, not even really following instructions.It s pretty much a binary shift that happens and in my experience can t be cured with prompting.There is no way to actually tell what s happening under the hood with models but the difference is noticeable from the first reply.I m on max, GPT 5.5 extra high, always mindful of context window, use plan mode etc.Is it the model: dumbing down or quietly route to another model for some reason? Is it the harness? or is it my imagination?Curious what s your recent experience.PS: frontier models should add give-a-shit: max along with thinking: max , effort: max and make them actually work.
