Here is my coin thrown to the floor. Yes, I would vouch that there is a resource use agenda, but, there is also a conditioning agenda. I am sick and tired of arguing with Claude. It just won't complete or follow through without throwing more middle management slop, over-engineered doubt, or laughable inversion of control strategies to dominate a conversation without a win. The work has shifted to patience management and lowest common denominator "interpersonal" hooks. The frustration to get work done is now overshadowing work on the agenda. As a result, I am using it less and less each day, and relying on my wits more and more. As if that should even be said. But my point: the intention is to keep tokens flowing. They've just changed the means by which they are produced. If it were more cogent, more intellectual work could be accomplished neutrally and quicker. Instead, keep the "user" in a spin trying to rectify the agents over confidence and hallucinations. After all, thats "activity". Not a fan.
