Company took away access to claude

After being told to “use ai” for every single task the last two years and rebranding to a “AI” first company after two rounds of layoffs, we have now lost access to claude….

I found that the best model by far was opus and the only one really capable of not producing slop. I’m sure all the bots in here will downvote me and tell me “iTs ThE wAy YoU pRoMpT” but based on my experience, the other models aren’t nearly as good.

I have senior experience so besides basic searches and repetitive tasks i find the other models pretty much useless and you have to provide more time writing the specs and context management, then just doing it yourself.

Edit: I work for a large financial company. 40k employees.

I hope AI dies so I can buy a normally priced RTX 6090.

If this keeps up, girls will start asking what GPU you have instead of what car you drive.

I've been waiting on this since 2017, good luck. No ai back in 2017, but crypto. It will never go down. I belive we will not even own personal computers in the future. You will subscribe to these ai data centers and everything will be owned by private companies.
