Claude Opus 4.8 stops thinking, Howard reports
In a post on X, Jeremy Howard highlighted a sudden decline in Claude Opus 4.8's performance, stating it stopped reasoning and answered poorly compared to the older Opus 4.6, which handled the identical prompts successfully. This issue points to potential problems with Anthropic's newly deployed adaptive thinking feature, API rate-limiting/overload degradation, or undocumented adjustments to effort settings.
