Yes, I've been using Opus to write a plan and fanout sonnet subagents to implement it. Cheaper and faster

What about quality? Being cheaper and faster, while great and all, is less valuable than quality to me.

  • All the code an LLM produces is of questionable quality, so I'm not sure why you'd prioritize quality over speed. Speed is their only value add.

    • This is a wild take. All cars can perfectly drive around a track, so why would you ever want an F1 car?

    • Have you compared models across providers? The quality, for the same task, varies tremendously. If you don't prioritize quality you're wasting your own time when you inevitably have to re-do the code...

  • You can always have opus review the result at the end

    • I've had bad results with this method. If I ask any model to review the same code ten times, then I will get ten different answer.
