Original Reddit post

It is actually insane how they’ve gutted the performance of this AI, so much that it’s practically unusable now. I just updated a couple of variables in a script. This caused side effects on the positioning logic in the app. I described the few changes I had made to the script, I described what behaviour was changed in the positioning logic, I explained where the positioning logic exists in the repo, and asked Claude to point me to where in the code these changed script variables might have an effect. The idiot spent my entire 4h session limit and got nowhere. We’re talking about 4 changed variables in the script, these affects the output of 2 public methods in the script. I searched for those 2 methods in the rest of my app and found the parts in the code where they could have an effect. Spent 10 min debugging and solved the issue. Claude spent 40 min and all my tokens and gave me nothing. If this is the state of Claude now I might be done with it soon. I’ve given it 400 times more difficult problems before, it has been able to find solutions to those problems within minutes, problems that woudl’ve taken me hours to solve. What the hell have they done? submitted by /u/imbadatnamesandshit
