It’s like every other day, the moment US working hours start, AI (in my case I mostly use Anthropic, others may be better) starts dying or at least getting intermittent errors.
In EU working hours there’s rarely any outages.
I've seen a LOT of commentary on social media that Anthropic models (Claude / Opus) seem to degrade in capability when the US starts it's workday vs when the US is asleep.
> Importantly, we never intentionally degrade model quality as a result of demand or other factors, and the issues mentioned above stem from unrelated bugs.
the statement is carefully worded to avoid the true issue: an influx of traffic resulting in service quality unintentionally degrading
I was trying to say that systemic issues (such as load capacity) seem to degrade the models in US working hours and has been noticed by a non-zero number of users (myself included).
