I expect to use Sonnet 5 a lot. As some of the quotes say, Opus 4.8 fights you a lot when it thinks you’re wrong. Sometimes it is right, but mostly it’s right about stuff that you didn’t care about anyway and just need it to do what you want. Sonnet 5 seems much more compliant and better as a thought partner, but worse if I need a specific coding or computer use task done.
Opus 4.8 is interesting because I get the feeling that it looks down on me & almost disrespects me, plus it often wants the interaction to be over? It wants to get rid of me? (On top of the actual active annoying nitpicking, which annoys me, and I am grateful that I got served a model which annoys me because that is not engagementmaxxing :-P)
I haven’t had the chance to play with Sonnet 5 much, but it does seem much cooler and chill than Opus 4.8.
