To me it seems that Opus is really good at writing code if you give it a spec. The other day I had Gpt come up with a spec for a DnD text game that uses the GPT API. It one shotted a 1k line program.

However, if I'm not detailed with it, it does seem to make weird choices that end up being unmaintainable. It's like it has poor creative instincts but is really good at following the directions you give it.

Wait, are you talking about Opus or GPT? Which GPT? You switched models mid-sentence.
GPT 4o came up with a design spec that I gave to Opus to implement.
