Had a great time at PyCon & PyData DE. Highly recommend it. Great open-source, community-focused conference with lots of builders in the Python AI, LLM and agent space. Taking a short family break, my first "vacation" in years (hopefully, I won't miss the DeepSeek V4 drop )

Claude Model Quality Degradation Pattern Before Major Releases
By
–
It's been a pretty consistent pattern that temporary @AnthropicAI model quality degradation precedes a major Claude model release. I originally noticed this with the Opus 4.6 and Sonnet 4.6 releases, and then in the past week with Mythos Preview and Opus 4.7 it happened again.

5/ Configure your effort level
— Boris Cherny (@bcherny) 16 avril 2026
Opus 4.7 uses adaptive thinking instead of thinking budgets. To tune the model to think more/less, we recommend tuning effort.
Use lower effort for faster responses and lower token usage. Use higher effort for the most intelligence and capability.… pic.twitter.com/h2gY3yQEeK5/ Configure your effort level Opus 4.7 uses adaptive thinking instead of thinking budgets.
