Did Claude become worse today ?
I have been using it as a programming assistant. It feels like it became really bad today ?
Lazy, not writing logical code, just non-sense useless code and the style of it is reminiscent of GPT-4o for some reason.
It is so strange, it suddenly came during the night, like if there was a system update.
Is it just me or you are affected too ?
This is example of code it outputs:
if (decision === '') {
if (code === '') {
break;
}
code = code.slice(0, -2);
if (code === '') {
code = '';
}
continue;
}
I work via the API (console.anthropic.com/workbench) which is still showing a static model number and has less safety filtering applied to it than interacting with the front end. Performance seems mostly acceptable still for me.
Its obvious they have had trouble meeting compute demand, so it wouldnt suprise me if they have quantized the model or something to help them out on capacity issues for "Pro" users interacting via the front end.
