"I feel the AGI": developer says Opus 5.5 cracked video editing, and he's the bottleneck
LeviTurk · x · 2026-09-25
Developer LeviTurk posted "I feel the AGI," saying his latest Aha moment came when Opus 5.5 solved video editing for him — a year after he started using Claude for it when it "sucked but drew me in, the same way o1 drew me into coding." His framing: if Opus 4.5 was the AGI moment for coding, Opus 5.5 is the AGI moment for video editing, where he and his imagination became the bottleneck. He asks how many more narrow tasks must fall before it's truly general, and how long from wish-fulfillment in cyberspace to atomspace. Note: "Opus 5.5" is unverified elsewhere; treat as personal experience.
