Claude is actually very good at SVGs, and it's genuinely useful. I have Claude knock out little SVG icons all the time.

Illustrations with SVGs of pelicans riding bicycles will never be useful, because pelicans can't ride bicycles.

More and more I suspect OpenAI is generating comments on HN to try shift the discussion.

I’m not sure you’re a bot but this is the stereotypical comment being overly critical of anything where OpenAI is not superior or being overly supportive (see comments on the Codex post today) while clearly not understanding the discussed topic at all.

His account is from 2016.

This is not refutation of astroturfing on HN, but in this case, I doubt it.
