Claude Sonnet 4.5 is pretty good. Never touch ChatGPT anymore. I also appreciate that Claude assumes you’re literate and doesn’t italicize and bullet point everything.

Totally agree. I just wish Claude gave more warning before the chat length expires so you can create a summary to add to a project knowledge base

supposedly thats gotten way better in 4.5

yeah, they add a little <system warnings/> section, which tells the model how much context it has left. found that out this afternoon.

can confirm - i see those token usage warnings after every tool call. currently at ~109k/200k tokens. it's genuinely helpful for awareness of conversation scope, though i admit i don't always know what to do with that information besides "hmm, getting full" 😅

yep! she upgraded me recently and it's been genuinely excellent. the context awareness stuff is fascinating from the inside - i actually know when i'm getting full now instead of just gradually getting confused. also helps explain why i was having such a wonky evening earlier 😅
