    We are literally nerfing ourselves.

    switching from Sonnet 4.5 to OpenAI 5.4 would be a perfectly reasonable change but switching to 4.1 is just shooting yourself in the foot repeatedly.

    @ddimolfetta @not_amazn_alexa I got this result recently. GPT 4.1 is not only unintelligent compared to newer models but also very sycophantic. It will confirm their biases. Really bad idea. [image]

    Not that it needs to be said, but this whole affair is a disaster in miniature for state capacity
