Im using pro on a discount. I got argon a few days after the release but the usage limits are worthless. Asking it for a simple review of a blog post blows through 50% of the usage limit. And in the limited experimenting I have been able to do because of that it also isn’t smarter than 3.8 flash.

I’m using the default anti gravity setup. 3.8 medium is my daily driver. This gets me pretty far. (Definitely not as far as Luna and Sol). When I ask the same question to Argon it is 50% of my weekly usage limit gone. So either the usage limit is really a lot smaller or somehow argon thinks a whole lot more even for simple tasks.

i’ll have to test that out. I’ve used argon a bit, but i guess not enough to really push the quota. The actual token based pricing is only 2x
What tasks have you needed it for? So far I’ve only switched for experimentation and while it was better, it didn’t seem necessary, especially given the latency.
Making sure you are scoping your context, being specific also helps.
And I do 90% of my work on 3.8 - flash - low. C, go , JS, bash , powershell generated content. Near perfect quality.
I hear lots of people say the budgets are low – I’m absolutely hammering it sometimes indiscriminately (shell into this instance, rebuild the entire vm image).
so I’m not sure what the gap is.
