  "textContent": "I had the same thought. Of course, this may just be my own speculation, but it feels like the model’s reasoning capacity has been reduced, or that the reasoning time has been shortened to reduce server load.\n\nI understand that we are paying for a plan that may not fully cover the real cost of running such advanced models, so I do not want to complain unfairly. However, the frustrating part is when something is launched with a certain level of quality and performance, people subscribe because of that experience, and then later the same quality seems to be reduced in order to cut costs.\n\nThat is what makes the situation disappointing. The model I am using now does not feel like the same model I used at launch. Before, it would reason more deeply, follow instructions more carefully, search and structure information better, and usually required only one or two adjustments. Now, especially for long-form and highly structured work, it often produces repetition, duplicated sections, and content that loses coherence.",
