First of all, thanks for providing us with Claude’s updated models so quickly, like always!
I do have a problem / question though. I simply cannot try out Opus. I’ve tried extensively, but all I get when I try to send a request is:
We're experiencing high demand for Claude 4 Opus right now. Please switch to the 'auto-select' model, another model, or try again in a few moments.
I understand a lot of people are trying out the updated models, but I’ve gotten this error on every message I send to Opus… I mean you’d think after trying to send it messages about 100 times there would be at least one coming through. It’s even billed me for a few requests, even though they did not come through.
I burn through my 500 fast requests in a couple days, and I don’t mind waiting a little longer to get a reply, but this… And why is Claude 4 not enabled for the slow pool? Seems like a bold move since I guess a lot of people are paying for Cursor because access to Claude (even when you’ve used up your fast requests) makes it worth it. And now you’ve limited it to fast requests (unless you decide to pay extra $$). Maybe add back Claude 3.7 Sonnet Thinking and enable it for slow pool?
I will continue to use Cursor for now, but if Cursor is going down this route any further I will try out Windsurf, or whatever else is available.
