Isn’t this obvious? When you have a task you think is hard. You give it to a cleverer model. When a task is straight forward you give it to an older one.
If I have a straight forward task, I give it to an LLM.
If I have a task I think is hard, I plan how I will tackle it, and then handle it myself in a series of steps.
LLM usage has become an end in itself in your development process.
For development use cases, I switched to Sonnet 4.5 and haven't looked back. I mean, sure, sometimes I also use GPT-5 (and mini) and Gemini 2.5 Pro (and Flash), and also Cerebras Code just switched to providing GLM 4.6 instead of the previous Qwen3 Coder so those as well, but in general the frontier models are pretty good for development and I wouldn't have much reason to use something like Sonnet 4 or 3.7 or whateve…
What tool are you using to enable switching between so many models?
Opus 4.1 beats Sonnet 4.5 and Codex for me still in any coding tasks. In planning it's slighly behind Codex but only slightly.
Caveat: I do almost exclusively Rust (computer graphics).

I have canceled my Claude Max subscription because Sonnet 4.5 is just too unreliable. For the rest of the month I'm using Opus 4.1 which is much better but seems to have much lower usage limits than before Sonnet 4.5 was released. When I hit 4.1 Opus limits I'm using Codex. I will probably go through with the Codex pro subscription.
Yes, it's down from 40h/week to 3-5h/week on Max plan, effectively. A real bummer. See my comment here [1] regarding [2].
Some missing context (pun intended) is that Augment code has recently switched to a per-token instead of per-message pricing model. This hasn't gone down particularly well, but that's another story. But it may well be that users drop back to older models in the expectation it will use less tokens. Personally, I stopped using GPT-5 as it would just be tool call after tool call without ever stopping to tell you what th…

In my personal experience, it's very common for big companies to host email, messengers, conferencing software on their own servers.
Yes, then they use Outlook for example. Have you checked the ToS of the new Outlook version for commoners? They flat out state that they can use all of your emails for whatever they want. Also, companies host for example an Exchange server on prem; and guess, what it connects to? Why you can usually access account at outlook.com?
