Also, how would you even know the deterioration? You have been barely 2 years on this website. Once again you gave away your shill nature.

No, you are intentionally being obtuse, because people have already called you out on your lies. Saying "my team worked on " is not under NDA in 90%+ cases, and no one is asking you for the implementation details for the .

Name your company so others from it can confirm what you have claimed regarding AI and LLMs or deny it. Each FAANG being 10k+ (and in most cases 50-100k+) makes doxxing you unlikely, as others have done so on this forum without any problem.

Moreover, you refuse to even name the organization you allegedly work at. This is because people who actually work there will immediately call you out on your bullshit, so you have to stay intentionally vague there.

This is just yet another evidence of you being a shill.

Anyways, solenoid0937 is an LLM-hype peddler and an Anthropic shill, not an actual FAANG-employee. See proof here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48269250

I did not have to go through "so much of their history", this is just the last 9 days. There are considerably wilder claims from them earlier, when the account was solely focused on propping up LLM-hype and defending Anthropic.

We are living through a period of time with one of the potentially most disruptive technologies ever being developed. A lot (A LOT) of money is invested into it, a lot of livelihoods are and might be affected by it, and some people stand to gain A LOT from it. So there are significant interests to sway public opinion in favour of LLMs and AI, to hype it up to unreasonable extent, to muddle the waters of a reasonable discourse. Accounts such as solenoid0937 are unleashed on public forums to achieve that, and because of that we have to take everything they write with a huge grain of salt, or even ignore completely, as there is just no true information in their comments.

You yourself got baited by them by considering what they wrote seriously regarding "amazing things with unlimited tokens". Now the idea that "LLMs 1) are used in one of FAANGs massively and 2) are used to produce amazing things" is planted. Will you remember later that they did not actually provide any evidence of that? The account has been doing this trick multiple times over the last few weeks.

For me, as someone who is actually using LLMs in their work, a single balanced comment on the matter would have been more than enough to consider them not being a shill. Unfortunately, instead they have claimed recently that they went completely full-on with agentic coding (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48245721) skipping reviews and pushing to prod directly (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48243651) at a FAANG, no less. And they claimed it in such a manner that this is objectively the only proper way to do the work, and all other approaches are doomed. How is this anything else than peddling unfounded LLM-hype, I do not know.

The example above might seem like a singular episode, but they have been doing it over and over for the last year and a half, so this is now a pattern. No actual evidence for any of their claims is provided, so the only thing left is AI-hype, and pretty wild at that. So why would a reasonable person, with ostensibly enough money to retire (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48252297), ostensibly working at a FAANG, spend all their days spreading unfounded AI-hype in a degrading manner on HN and defending Anthropic? Given the vested financial interest in the technology, the most plausible answer here is that they are paid to do so.

All of this serves to hype up the LLM technology with absolutely outlandish claims, while also propping up Anthropic online.

Did you really just claim that people are so gullible that it was social media or whatever that made them believe their LLM could no longer achieve the tasks it yesterday could, and not the actual FACT of LLM not being able to do it that they, you know, verified before complaining online? I guess if you gaslight everything like that, then indeed no matter what the facts are, you will never be convinced in anything.

You see, because of outlandish claims and reasoning (or rather lack of) like that, everyone sees that you are an Anthropic shill.

Gaslighting again, Anthropic shill. What does frequency bias have to do with the objective fact that hundreds of people reported their own experiences with LLMs being degraded over a short period of time? The very same tasks that the very same LLMs could do, they no longer can? You seem to ignore this FACT, this DATA, and instead have to gaslight and divert into "frequency bias" nonsense. I do understand, why you are doing it, Anthropic shill, but at least have guts to admit it.

> perception of a model

You once again ignore what your LLM outputted and you typed yourself and divert into "perception", Anthropic shill. You do not need to sample entire output for tokens to notice the distribution moving. If the LLM used to be able to achieve set goals and no longer could, it is already a sign of the distribution shift. And as you said yourself, different token distribution = model being quantized. Which is reported in hundreds of separate instances. Which is more than enough to conclude that the model was, in fact, quantized, and no amount of gaslighting can change that. But you are an Anthropic shill, so you have to peddle your bullshit, trying to twist facts to support your employer's narrative. And you deserve being called out on that, Anthropic shill.

Once again, putting "AI bad" into my words. No, Anthropic shill, this is not what I am saying. Is your LLM malfunctioning or are you not really getting it? Stop gaslighting, Anthropic shill, and try to stick to the actual words I am saying. I understand that this is hard for you, because then you would have no real argument to make, but please try, Anthropic shill.

> Please show it.

I used an LLM to count actual experiences of people reporting their experience with Opus 4.6 being degraded. There are literally several hundreds of such data points. This is data. People, who are employed and actually use LLMs for coding, unlike you, Anthropic shill, who uses it only to poison online communities. Are you really going to disregard all that to claim it is mass-psychosis or something? I guess you would, Anthropic shill, because that's your job, to peddle bullshit LLM-hype unbased on anything in reality.

> It was an incoherent mess of insults, so I am still not sure what you're trying to say.

Repeat after me, Anthropic shill: being called a shill is not an insult. You are a shill, stop being obtuse and at least take some pride in your work of promoting LLM-hype. So once again you are providing nothing to the conversation except for baseless accusations of insulting, which I did not do, and refuse to answer to the actual arguments I made. I can provide it again, but you would likely ignore it because it just showcases how you are clueless about the topic.

Your words, not mine:

> Third, and most importantly, the actual output measurably changes. Quants have a lower latency, higher TPS, and different token distribution.

I asked if you understood what "different token distribution" meant. I can tell you what it means: models performing worse at coding tasks. So people report models being worse at coding tasks, YOU write that indeed quantization leads to that and then just "forgot" about it? Nice level of "objective" discussion, Anthropic shill.

> So now I'm lying about my employment on an anonymous forum for... what, exactly?

It is not anonymous forum, as much as you would have liked it to be, so that your shilling could not be dismissed as easily, Anthropic shill. For what? So that people would fall for the bullshit you are peddling. Are you really this dense, Anthropic shill?
