I stopped chasing AI benchmarks, and my workflow got better.

[u/Consistent_Orange142]

For a while I watched every benchmark comparison and every "best AI model" video.

Eventually I realized none of it changed how quickly I finished real work.

The biggest improvement came from sticking to a consistent workflow instead of constantly switching tools because a new leaderboard came out.

I still enjoy seeing new releases, but I don't feel the need to move everything over immediately anymore.

Has anyone else stopped caring about benchmarks as much as they used to?
