TLDR

Peter Yang asked on X whether switching between medium and high reasoning effort modes in the same AI conversation thread would disrupt results. Vaibhav (VB) Srivastav replied on X recommending that users keep effort levels constant per thread, especially longer ones, and spin up a subagent or new thread when a different setting is needed. Yang replied that subagents sound like a good idea.

    If I switch back and forth between medium and high effort in the same AI thread is that going to mess things up?
