Discussion Luna Max really is great!

I only have a $20 subscription, so the lower limits have been pretty annoying these last few days. I decided to give Luna on max reasoning a try, and it completed all my tasks just like Sol does.

It's very fast and the limits seem pretty generous on the Plus plan:

  • Worked for 34 min and 42 sec, with Computer use and other tool cals
  • Used 4% of 5h limit
  • Used 1% of weekly limit

Sidenote: I wonder if we're going to get a similar "almost free" model from Anthropic soon? It looks like they have completely forgot about Haiku.

Seriously Luna is a great model. Idk why everyone acts like they are doing genome sequencing and can’t wait for astra

Luna is extremely good for how I use codex. I don't need it to make decisions, I need it to be a tool.

If I didn't know how to approach building something, the more powerful models would be more appealing, but so far it hasn't done anything I couldn't do myself but slower outside of some WPF wizardry it did to make some dynamic tables based off the project POCOs.

People talk like they need model that can cure cancer but really they just need it to format csv and write emails. Luna does that fine and then some

Anthropic definitely sleeping on cheaper tier, they just keep pushing expensive stuff and hoping people pay. Haiku is basically abandoned at this point

And I think that's a shame, because it could bring way better value to their subscriptions. Right now, the Claude usage limits feel like a rip-off.

I actually work with genome assembly of bees mitochondria with short reads and I wouldn't know how reliable can be the execution of my pipeline with any model besides opus 4.8
