History doesn't always repeat itself.
But if it does, then in the following week we'll see DeepSeek4 floods every AI-related online space. Thousands of posts swearing how it's better than the latest models OpenAI/Anthropic/Google have but only costs pennies.
Then a few weeks later it'll be forgotten by most.
- sbysb 6mo agoIt's difficult because even if the underlying model is very good, not having a pre-built harness like Claude Code makes it very un-sticky for most devs. Even at equal quality, the friction (or at least perceived friction) is higher than the mainstream models.
- raincole 6mo agoOpenCode? Pi? If one finds it difficult to set up OpenCode to use whatever providers they want, I won't call them 'dev'. The only real friction (if the model is actually as good as SOTA) is to convince your employer to pay for it. But again if it really provides the same value at a fraction of the cost, it'll eventually cease to be an issue.
- throwa356262 6mo ago"If one finds it difficult to set up OpenCode to use whatever providers they want, I won't call them 'dev'." I feel the same way. But look at the ollama vs llama.cpp post from HN few days back and you will see most of the enthusiasts in this space are very non technical people.
- zargon 6mo agoI think you mean ollama vs llama.cpp.
- throwa356262 6mo agoI do! Damn autocorrect :)
- zargon 6mo agoI call it autocorrupt :)
- cmrdporcupine 6mo agoThey have instructions right on their page on how to use claude code with it.
- 2ndorderthought 6mo agoYou can literally run it from Claude code. Easily too
