alt Hacker News> because they are interchangeable
What is your use-case?
Mine is: I use "Pro"/"Max"/"DeepThink" models to iterate on novel cross-domain applications of existing mathematics.
My interaction is: I craft a detailed prompt in my editor, hand it off, come back 20-30 minutes later, review the reply, and then repeat if necessary.
My experience is that they're all very, very different from one another.
my use case is Google replacement, things that I can do by myself so I can verify and things that are not important so I don’t have to verify.
Sure, they produce different output so sometimes I will run the same thing on a few different models when Im not sure or happy but I’d don’t delegate the thinking part actually, I always give a direction in my prompts. I don’t see myself running 30min queries because I will never trust the output and will have to do all the work myself. Instead I like to go step by step together.
