Anthropic Launches Claude Opus 5.5 With Fable-Level Performance at a Lower Price

I have no intention of paying for AI. If it becomes necessary to use, I’ll run it locally. I’ll take whatever hits I must to avoid paying into the infinite growth machine that’s helped make everything so expensive.

I wouldn’t mind paying if and when it actually becomes useful. Right now, in the consumer space, it’s nothing but a novelty.

This is just a lack of imagination at this point. If you're not already looking for the possibilities to integrate AI in to your normal everyday personal workflows you're pretty far behind and I say that as someone who is definitely behind.

I know there's a lot of novelty examples on YT and X that make it seem pretty trivial but one of my main workflows right now is a personal wiki where i can drop a post or a video from and have it automatically build a learning and deployment plan that I can follow in my lab without having to cross-reference a dozen different pages to get to that point.

Lol, I’ll gladly stay “behind”. It sounds like a rat-race into a nightmare world à la idiocracy.

Being “behind” on many things isn’t as big of a deal as the marketing teams at these companies would like you to believe.

Sometimes being behind actually puts you ahead.

I skate to where the puck is going to be, not where it has been

Sure, let’s waste time search for ways to force this stuff into systems that already work just so we can spend money on unreliable outcomes. Sounds super smart and not at all like falling for a scam.

Stop this AI madness! We need RAM, SSDs back pre-AI pricing:-) We need PS6 for 700$, not 2000$.
