I can't wait to never see a reasoning button ever again. Why do I have to reason about what reasoning level to use?

Some people want quick results. Some people want it to keep searching for a new math proof overnight without giving up, and they have money to burn.
It seems like giving it a time limit or a budget in dollars would be clearer, though?
Or, keep searching until I come back to the computer and ask about progress.
The _Intelligence_ part of AGI should be able to guide the user through that without all the knobs.
The user has to express their desire somehow. Either in the chat text itself or with a simple toggle. Not sure which is more user friendly actually.
OpenAI tried auto-routing with the initial GPT-5 release and it was immediately clear why that was a bad idea.
intelligence is not omniscience though

Because the model can't read your mind and know if you want a quick answer, or an hour long deep dive.
Then it should just ask the user what they want if its unclear from the context.
Exactly! I posted much the same comment in another thread and there were lots of huffy complaints that amounted to "you're prompting it wrong"
So instead of just getting an answer, I have to wait until it asks me, and I have to type back a response? Extremely annoying.
That's what the reasoning slider is for!
Because your incentives are opposed to the provider’s incentives
I think it's nice to be able to make the model reason for dozens of minutes when you want to go deep on a topic, even if the router thinks it's an easy question.
