Yea honestly... the only truths I care about in AI LLM aided devlopment right now is that Claude is a much better planner, and Codex is a much more professional coder.

You can mask a surprisingly amount of terrible coding with proper design planning.

If it works, who cares, right? That's been the status quo for software development for about as long as I can remember, unfortunately.

I used to get frustrated with Codex. I felt as though it wasn't able to see far enough ahead into the future and just intuit what I expected (which is how Claude leaves you feeling).

And then I realized a lot of those intuitions Claude was having were great, and the project progressed, but sometimes to a point that Claude himself was unable to take back control of it... because some of the on the spot decisions it was making were great quick-thinking... but unfortunately, they were only that a lot of the time. Which was the most frustrating of all.

If you specifically ask Claude to plan out and refine a long term project's roadmap though and stick to it, it could probably write an operating system overnight (that kindof worked).
