Pick model & effort

/model switches brains: bigger for judgment and the writing that reaches a client or a lender, smaller for sorting comps and extracting fields. Higher effort (how long it thinks before answering) buys depth on genuinely hard problems (a structure that has to survive committee) and wastes money on easy ones. Deliberate switching is the difference between a $2 day and a $20 day with identical output.

Where these ideas come from: Effort (AI Hero dictionary). Paraphrased here.
