I tried the latest Claude for a very complex wrapper around the AWS Price APIs who are not easy to work with. Down a 2,000 line of code file, I found Claude faking some API returns by creating hard coded values. A pattern I have seen professional developers being caught on while under pressure to deliver.

This will be a boon to the human skilled developers, that will be hired at $900 dollars an hour to fix bugs of a subtlety never seen before.
