My personal experience with Opus 5: horrible. Sonnet 5, Fable 5, Opus 4.8 are all much better. Much less lying, hallucination, and better task adherence. Its responses are literally impossible to understand. Suddenly they drop a link saying we need to rethink our prompts . Not only is giving as much trust to Opus 5 impossible since it does not warrant that trust, but now I have to deal with the fact that I have 100 memories asking Claude to speak plainly. And dozens of skills and rules and prompts made for older generations. Does this basically mean that as I continue to use Claude for longer, the memories, skills, workflows, etc. I accumulate keep working against me? Should I actually consider hitting the big reset button on all my memories & co. with every new model? Kinda feels cumbersome, but I also don’t want a new model that can actually speak simply have 50k of tokens wasted on the 50 memories asking it to speak plainly. submitted by /u/Muted_Cause_3281
