That's an uncharitable way of reading what Anthropic said. And they said it very plainly as well

> To state it plainly: We never reduce model quality due to demand, time of day, or server load. The problems our users reported were due to infrastructure bugs alone.

Not sure why the twitter account/person is willfully misrepresenting the facts.

It would be an uncharitable way to put it if Anthropic had acknowledged the problem within the first say week of users complaining about it.

Nearly a month later, they've lost credibility.

They also never disclosed they were load balancing with nvidia GPUs and Amazon aws trainium inference chips until people complained.
