Claude: Elevated errors across all models

They have identified the issue

Kimi hack it?

Sorry folks, my fault.

I finally went from Pro to Max after hitting another 5 hour session limit today.

It's a reminder to never rely on something as flaky as the internet for your important things.

Used the opportunity to go down and talk to my family. They seem like okay people.

Ran out of water?

can't even run my own code without it

what do you all do when claude is down?

We are really bad; without Claude, we don't do anything

So this is the technology that will underpin each and every facet of work, but it can randomly go down for hours with no accountability, and so do all of the services based on it. But hey, AGI tomorrow.

kissing goodbye to my deadline

everyone here sounds like the last bunch of people who still used yahoo.com

Probably just as well with how terrible Opus 4.8 has been for me lately. I'm sure it's a common thing to complain about the latest model being nerfed, but I've legitimately never experienced such a drastic cliff in Claude's quality and a rise in its hallucinations and basic comprehension errors since upgrading. The few days I experimented with Fable also weren't much more promising. Has anyone coined a term yet for the likelihood of newer models getting worse as the AI-generated content they get trained on starts to approach critical mass? If Anthropic isn't already thinking hard about a solution, they probably should be.

Finally I can touch some grass

Aaaaand there goes my cache. Damnit.

Can we please stop posting here every time Claude or OpenAI are down? These are not critical services like AWS / S3 where downtime means that your application is offline. Nothing is easier than switching to another provider, mid-session even.

Claude is back up. Just spoke with him about slinky, versatile femboys with cute feet. All good. Gonna pentest with Rust to pay for my fursuit at Defcon.

Closed models are down whenever their provider is down. Open models are up as long as any one provider is up.
