If it's so great at software engineering and bug fixing, then why does Claude Code still have 5000+ open bugs?

Apparently whatever SWE-bench is measuring isn't very relevant.

as much as I hate cc, 95% of the issues there are either AI psychosis or user error

So it should be insanely easy for this world altering model to comb through them and close irrelevant ones.

torturing a model with human stupidity probably doesn't align with their position on model welfare; wondering if they tried bullying it into hacking its way out of the slop gulag

Yes, perhaps it finds it stressful operating on itself.

Maybe that's why they haven't released it - to give it a vacation?

@anthropic, send me an email if you need access to a jupyter notebook that'd motivate haiku to hack itself into and then back out of the pentagon

So "only" 250 real bugs?

Also, why is Anthropic still hiring SWEs?

Probably because a human still has to review every change and they don't have time

So if all the AI code is being reviewed by humans (not sure this is true, but let's assume it is), then why are there 5000+ bugs? Are you blaming the Anthropic developers rather than the AI?
