Find the AI spend you can cut without losing quality
› Apple is reportedly cutting some engineers' daily AI budgets and pushing cheaper models. Do the audit before someone does it for you.
I'll paste a list of the AI tasks I or my team ran this week. For each one I'll give: what the task was, which model or tool I used, roughly how often I do it, and how much the output quality mattered (low, medium, high).
[paste your list here]
For each task:
1. Say whether it needs a top-tier model, a mid-tier model, or a small fast model, and give a one-line reason.
2. Flag tasks where I'm likely paying for reasoning I don't use (formatting, extraction, short rewrites, classification).
3. Flag tasks where a cheaper model is a false economy because a mistake costs more than the tokens.
4. Suggest one way to cut the input I send for each repeated task (shorter context, reusable instructions, summaries instead of full documents).
Then give me a table: task, current tier, recommended tier, expected savings (small, medium, large), risk (low, medium, high). End with the three changes I should make first. Don't invent prices. If you need a number you don't have, ask me for it.
Works in any AI chat. In Magai, run it against several models at once.
