How is AI actually
performing today?

slow, overengineered, bad quality code

I've found Claude Code's performance to be a bit of a mixed bag. While it's quite decent at reading files, it's surprisingly bad at knowing which ones to target. It's incredibly frustrating on larger repos because it just wanders around grepping, which burns through my context and turns. I feel like I'm just wasting time on navigation instead of the actual work.

I've finally built an MCP server for my notification infra, and it's a total game changer! I don't even have to leave my terminal to check a dashboard anymore. Now, Claude is actually writing my workflows, sending out campaigns, and reading back delivery stats. It handles personalized emails and SMS so smoothly—it feels incredibly empowering to have this much automation at my fingertips.

I'm desperately trying to figure out how to make this AI a powerhouse for building Roblox games, but I'm hitting a wall. It keeps spitting out the same repetitive slop over and over, even when I describe exactly what I want changed! It's so frustrating to burn through my daily credits only to have it get the same thing wrong four times in a row. I just need it to be smarter.

I've been trying to digitize my academic papers in Latin and Ancient Greek, but Claude keeps slamming me with these ridiculous safety guardrail blocks every few minutes. It's so frustrating because my work is purely historical and totally harmless! I feel like I’m being blocked from my own research, and the lack of response from Anthropic is honestly making me feel quite suspicious.

Missing details it normally doesn't

I am honestly so frustrated with the way Anthropic's outputs are evolving. I just ran into this response, and it's an absolute nightmare of dense, incomprehensible jargon that makes zero sense. It feels like the product is actually regressing rather than improving. Dealing with such unintelligible nonsense is incredibly demoralizing and makes the tool feel much less useful than before.
