I’m loving the updates recently, however, I’m fully on board with the Auto mode. My understanding/assumption is that the Auto mode is selecting the model based on the complexity of the query. However, the current design doesn’t reveal which model was selected which makes me far less confident about the changes being made, especially in agent mode. It would be great if the selected model was displayed.
