Opus 5.5 is a good model, but I've tried to understand the extreme hype about it on social media about Opus' ability to do 2d work, as we got with Astra doing 3d work. In both releases, the models required extensive access to third party apis to generate assets for it, and a lot of the models work was essentially coordinating everything.
There's so many "x generated this in one shot, this is agi" stuff that gives you the impression that you can vibe operate modern models the same way you operated last year's models. There's so much more to it than that. It requires you to put a faith in the leap in the capability of models, one that would've surely been a waste of time in previous models.
Not sure where i'm going with this other than I think most can relate that it's exhausting keeping up with. I cant imagine what it'd be like parenting a kid that went from toddler to puberty in the span of a year and planning for them to go to college the next year. This industry is moving so fast that it's becoming fact that it's the user that's "holding it wrong" every six months.
"a lot of the models work was essentially coordinating everything." - I don't see anything wrong with that personally. It's still extremely challenging to build a model harness, and having a model-mediated everything is clearly wishful thinking. It's exhausting to keep up with, but also somewhat exciting, all depends on your perspective of course.
