I’ve been experiencing unreliable performance for a while and can’t imagine this is solely due to new model training.
It does seem like Anthropic is experimenting with how much less they can offer users. I also get the feeling they are judging what resources a task deserves and dumbing things down accordingly. I’m seeing lazy responses and skipped steps more frequently for non-technical queries.
It’s definitely possible the average user hasn’t noticed, unfortunately.
