- pants2 6mo agoGood point. I feel like this does a disservice to ChatGPT -- IIRC even the free tier of Claude points you to Sonnet 4.6 by default, which is magnitudes better than 5.3-instant which has been the default in ChatGPT. Hence most users will immediately think Claude is smarter, even if their best models are on par.

- while_true_ 6mo agoCorrect. I have the $20/month plan and I just checked, the default is 5.3-instant. I can manually switch it to Thinking is 5.5. I also have it set to auto-switch.
