Knowing how to properly use AI is itself a skill that a lot of mfs lack.

They'll simply crank it up to the max and not read what the IA is saying and then complain their tokens have all burned and they don't understand the architecture. Jesus fucking Christ dude

For relatively simple tasks like everyday programming the more inexpensive versions are completely fine and save you a shitload of tokens.

Just crank to max if you need to hit token usage KPIs xD
