So, people are falling for Anthropic's marketing scheme?
Personally, I find myself using the Chinese alternatives more and more as they are just way cheaper.
The good thing is that a deepseek can be run locally relatively well with consumer hardware. I trust chinese companies as much as i trust american companies with my data and my prompts.
You have 170+ GB VRAM at home? (:
I mainly use DeepSeek v4 Flash now, it's the cheapest around and the quality is high enough for coding. At work we're throwing tons of money at Claude, but even there I usually stick to Sonnet (as Opus is burning money).
1 token/second isn't remotely acceptsble lol
Theres a lot of good models free online that are open source/Chinese and the only cost is a bit of slowness on my rig. No token limit or whatever. Totally agree.
Its about as good as commercial products now...
I’ve been loving minimax-m3 since its release
The company taking most of chatGPT's market share is actually Gemini, which I think is cheating because it's basically just padding the numbers with random google searches.
Can't be Europeans as they're locked out from the new models LOL
As is everyone?
I switched to opencode and deepseek
What scheme, their last models have been so much better than OpenAI’s it’s no surprise people are moving to Claude.
