I'm giving the new Sonnet a chance, although for my use as a writing companion so far, Opus has been king among all the models I've tried.

However, I've been using Opus as a writing companion for several months, especially when you have writer's block and ask it for alternative phrases, it was super creative. But in recent weeks I was noticing a degradation in quality. My impression is that the model was degrading. Could this be technically possible? Might it be some kind of programmed obsolescence to hype new models?

You're expectations could just be increasing as you start taking it for granted and are using other models.
