anyone else used gpt-5 high as a daily heavy lifter? I find it to actually be the best model im working with now. in terms of cost its affordable too and its practically the best when it comes to following instructions and also the best when it comes to using the edit tool, barely any mistakes bein…

It’s a main model I use along with codex. Slow but incredibly smart! And works great with new Plan mode in Cursor
