“So, um, when I'm using it, I'm actually noticing that the, um, the way that it speaks is more conversational, more fluid. It's less like, uh, you know, you have to really prompt it in a very specific way. It's more like you're talking to a person.”
“And I think that's the biggest leap. I mean, it's not just about the power of the model, it's about the usability. Yes. And I think that's what Opus 5.5 has cracked. It's cracked the code on usability. Yeah. It's just, it's just easy to use. And I think that's where, you know, the rubber meets the road for most people. Yeah.”
