Issue with current documentation:

I am a beginner to both LangGraph and Anthropic/Claude. Please excuse my n00b question if this is off base or I could raise this in a more appropriate forum.

Currently (January 18, 2025), the LangGraph Quickstart tutorial at https://langchain-ai.github.io/langgraph/tutorials/introduction/ uses

llm = ChatAnthropic(model="claude-3-5-sonnet-20240620")

Is it time to upgrade this to a newer model, such as

llm = ChatAnthropic(model="claude-3-5-sonnet-20241022") ?

I asked Perplexity Pro, which told me that the 20241022 model is now probably better for this kind of activity.

Idea or request for content:

Thanks for bringing this up -- it's a good idea to upgrade and we'll do so, but this is not really an "issue" with documentation, so will close this one. If you are running into any specific issues while using an older model, feel free to open another issue.
