Does Fast Mode Do Anything?

A new site asks whether the "Fast Mode" offered by AI coding assistants actually delivers any measurable speed or quality improvement.

Discussion is drawing programmers curious whether the extra cost is justified.

Why now: Developers are debating whether paid fast-mode options in AI coding tools provide real benefits or are effectively marketing.
