I don't really do anything at my job that could be done in a single prompt, and certainly not something that would take me 7 hours. A 7 hour task would take multiple iterations with how LLMs are right now.

You said it would do overnight what would take a human half a week, so I'm curious what tasks you are doing where AI is 3x faster than you even at 1t/s

Your prompts are probably very underspecified then. Frontier models one shot the majority of my prompts. UI is kind of the exception, there I do have to ask for a lot of tweaks.

Maybe. Do you have an example of a prompt you've done recently?

I don't think it's valuable at all to try and craft a specific prompt to "one-shot" a task, I'm way faster just doing small asks and guiding it. At 1t/s, how would you even know your prompt was insufficient? It would take you 7 hours to see it.

Stuff along the lines of implement controller service and tests for the following endpoints:

- list of many endpoints with the JSON they receive and return and description of what they need to achieve

Stuff you could probably do in a single work day if you lock in and enter flow state, but in a typical job takes like half a week. And the vast majority of times the AI one shots it with no bugs, where I would have copy paste errors or dumb stuff I'd need to fix before it's shippable.

why need frontier model for this?

		Why not? It makes less mistakes and with subscriptions it's very cheap
