GPT-5.6 and Claude Opus 5 can do the job if you build a tight feedback loop
dejavucoder · x · 2026-07-26
In this reply, the author says they were partly joking in an earlier post, but that GPT-5.6 Sol High and Claude Opus 5 can now do almost everything mentioned in the replies, as long as you build a tight feedback loop and use profiling instead of trying to steer too much.
The useful takeaway is practical rather than theoretical: these models appear capable of handling the work, but the workflow matters. The poster frames the improvement as less about hand-holding and more about creating the right iteration loop.
