alt Hacker NewsIt feels Opus 5.5 has already saturated pretty much software engineering. I use it daily and it's hard to say what it can't do for software engineering. It's perfect.
Fable 5.2 might be useful for some use-cases, but will likely get very little usage.
Anthropic needs to figure out a way to create a new industry (like pushing forward bio/robotics) to get usage for those models.
Early computers could crunch numbers well, only later ones started to get good at e.g. graphics. Coding is early in the LLM tech tree. Harder is CAD and PCBs. Today's model can do it, but there is room for improvement. That's just an example from personal use, surely there are more cases out there. I agree completely about these new use cases needed for Anthropic to grow.
