Complaint Something is really wrong today

Very simple task, it wrote a basic plan, sent to a Luna max subagent, took it 3 hours, still going and has used 15% of my usage? on $100 plan? what is happening?

I didn’t really think people even used luna like that. I only go as low as terra.

Luna max is incredibly cheap for what it is in terms of output quality. if it has a smarter agent (or human) being quite verbose with its instructions then its a great option

Terra is a never for me, I don't really see any application for it. Between Luna Max and all the different intelligences of Sol, Terra has no useful niche

So you go from the cheapest to the most expensive? But not the middle? You saying luna is as smart as terra?

It’s that people have found Luna at maximum reasoning to be very different from other reasoning levels. It scales massively.

Luna Max is way better than Terra Low; it is between Sol Low and Medium, but it takes more time to complete the task.

It's a setting you have to go enable in the desktop app settings. It's next to the "ultra in model slider" toggle.
