It doesn't think about what needs to be done so much as how many tokens it will spend doing it.

    I don't think that's exactly on the agendae, yet. Google just released their 4.0 model - Argon I think it is. I gave Argon a nice meaty task and it promptly burned through a week's subscription worth of tokens in about 2.5 hours. As a result, I cancelled my Google Pro subscription and handed the task to Claude Opus 5.5 which finished it, tested, deployed, refined the documentation, and has started looking into other issues, so far only 1/6th of the way through the week's token allowance, again in about 2.5 hours of work.

    So - if Argon is torching tokens on purpose, it's losing Google my business. Before Argon, Gemini 3.8 was much more token thrifty, but it's not as good a coder as Opus 5.5. Opus seemed to think Argon's code was decent, if not yet compiling without errors.
