I asked everyone to start with the same short prompt. The reported satisfaction scores ranged from 0 to 9.5 out of 10. A read for builders, PMs, and anyone who refuses to ship without thinking.
TL;DR: I asked Substack writers to give Claude Opus 5.5 one vague prompt to make a video, change only their publication name and URL, and rate the result from 1 to 10. Twenty-one participants gave a numeric score, covering the entire scale from 0 to 10, with a median of 6/10 and a mean of 5.36/10. Nine landed in the lukewarm middle (4 to 7), six were satisfied (8 to 10), and six were disappointed (0 to 3). Anna Levitt revised her video, and her score went from 5 to 7.5. My conclusion: one vague prompt often gets you a decent first draft, but rarely a finished video, and the people who already had saved skills and brand context weren't running the same experiment as everyone else.
0 to 10.
