Bad idea

What you’re doing is very risky and not smart.

It’s one thing to not look at or completely understand the code it’s generating, worse case scenario it screws up whatever project you’re working on.

If you give it free access to your computer, you’re risking it wrecking your computer.

There’s a reason why those guardrails are there to begin with.

On the other hand, did it ever give you a permission prompt to do anything that’s actually destructive? So although it has the technical permission to do really destructive thing, realistically it won’t actually delete your whole computer. But it’s still a bad idea to give it the permission to do it

LLMs are non deterministic.

That means that we can never predict what they might output.

That’s why it’s

The models keep improving, and a lot of improvements are focused on safety, but they still might decide that to do whatever you asked them to do, it will be helpful to do something destructive.

I’m going to be honest with you. I just wiped out humanity. I shouldn’t have done that without asking you and I’m genuinely sorry. If you have a backup stored anywhere, I’ll help you recover it.

Right, there is that chance, but it’s extremely low. Always better to take precautions and run it sandboxed or with lower access

Absolutely!! Since I use Claude code a lot on the terminal besides for writing code, I very often need it to run commands so I got to see

Examples:
sudo mkdir /temp on Android (multiple times I stopped it)
sudo rm -rf something it didn’t realize isn’t garbage
Running command that do not what it thinks etc.

Good to know, Didn’t think it was that common. Most of the time when I don’t give it permission to do something, its because its trying to do something stupid, not dangerous

Most of the time you’re right but if you use it often, it will at some point mess up badly if you’re not overlooking it.

Opus 4.8 - my take

Haven’t used it enough yet but realized it uses way too much tokens

and I find that it’s more confident about stuff it makes up (they are wrong) then the older models. Claude was saying that this model is much better at doing long take without user interaction. That requires not asking the user when not sure but rather relying on it’s own hallucinations. That’s the breaking point for me so I don’t think I’ll be using it. (The token פרעסעריי of also a part)

I also realized they now all models show token usage while thinking - which is new. Also realized, it now haha more tokens before quota is reached.

I haven’t noticed any major differences yet

Officially based off of Mythos.

Pretty scary.

I have been using it for the last hour or so and have not noticed any major differences yet

It’s basically useless - every time I use it gets scared and switches to opus (kosher phone related stuff, unlocking, etc) I’m guessing something like that gets flagged…

It switched by me by mistake. Nothing related to unlocking at all…

I think they are just extra scared you’ll find out it can’t actually hack NASA :joy:

I don’t get the point of it - I used it in the claude app/website, but anything in claude code just gets flagged :frowning:

It’ll probably get better. Opus 4.8 stopped flagging as much as it used to I think.

But maybe at the time it gets better, we won’t have access. I got an email that I’ll have access through June 22 and afterwards it’ll only be available with usage credits.

I’m on pro. Maybe max is different

It’s the same for Max. They’re clearly testing something to see what’s going to happen when they release the seriously strong model
