Hey bcherny, I'm confused as to what's happening here. The linked issue was closed, with you seeming to imply there's no actual problem, people are just misunderstanding the hidden reasoning summaries and the change to the default effort level.

But here you seem to be saying there is a bug, with adaptive reasoning under-allocating. Is this a separate issue from the linked one? If not, wouldn't it help to respond to the linked issue acknowledging a model issue and telling people to disable adaptive reasoning for now? Not everyone is going to be reading comments on HN.

It's better PR to close issues and tell users they're holding it wrong, and meanwhile quietly fix the issue in the background. Also possibly safer for legal reasons.
Isn’t that what they just did here? Close Stella’s Issue, cross post to hn, then completely sidestep an observation users are making, and attack the analyst of transcripts with a straw man attack blaming… thinking summaries….
There's a 5 hour difference between the replies, and new data that came in, so the posts aren't really in conflict.

Also it doesn't sound like they know "there's a model issue", so opening it now would be premature. Maybe they just read it wrong, do better to let a few others verify first, then reopen.
