Claude models regress on tool use; Palantir warns on data sharing; startups train custom LLMs

Newer versions of Anthropic's Claude models, specifically Opus 4.8 and Sonnet 5, have exhibited a regression where they incorrectly add extraneous fields to tool calls, causing rejections. This issue, noted by developer Armin Ronacher, suggests that increased conversational ability in LLMs does not always translate to improved structured output generation. Separately, Palantir CEO Alex Karp has warned businesses against sharing proprietary data with third-party LLM providers, advocating for keeping sensitive information separate from model training or inference processes. Additionally, the startup Base44 has trained its own LLM, Base 1, to avoid the generic output often produced by frontier models, highlighting a trend towards specialized models for distinct design needs.
