I just noticed this November 2025 post by Howard Oakley at Eclectic Light Company. He diagnoses Claude’s log diagnosis. He’s not impressed.
My Summary
When presented with a log extract, Claude misidentified and misread log entries, and introduced errors in reporting what it claimed were the most important diagnostic entries. Its recommended solutions were ineffective, unwise, or a decade out of date. Neither did it give any warnings for their adverse effects, or recommend contacting Apple Support.
