I'm not interested in getting into some argument about who has "more knowledge in the subject matter". I'm genuinely curious: do you think Opus 4.6 hallucinates just as much as GPT-3.5?

Yes. I see it hallucinate method names for 3rd party libraries constantly.

It’s useful, but when users here say they’re vibe coding 98% of their work, I have to think they’re not working on anything complex.

Hmm no way. Ive used to see hallucinations like 50% of the time prompting gpt3.5 for simple functions.

I don't remember the last time ive seen a made up library/methods these days and Im definitely using way more for more complex stuff. The tool calling changed the game.

Even for work I do almost 100% of my coding telling claude what to do. I mean I break down the tasks and tell it more or less exactly what I want but I find "rename this thing across these two repos" easier than doing it myself

I ran into the non existent methods and functions far more a year ago than I do today. I hadn’t even considered it as I don’t write a lot of code, Most of my job is talking with people to understand the problems and to drive strategy.
