+++ OpenAI's latest model arrives in ChatGPT and API with predictable tiering: more money unlocks faster reasoning, because innovation without pricing psychology is apparently leaving dollars on the table. +++
+++ OpenAI claims its latest model matches prior latency while thinking harder, conveniently forgetting that practitioners care less about reasoning depth than whether their inference bill survives Q4. +++
+++ Anthropic identified three culprits behind recent Claude Code stumbles: overthinking via default reasoning, a caching mishap, and aggressive verbosity suppression. The fixes arrived quietly, which beats the alternative. +++
