I briefly tried some Chinese models with pi.dev. It was fine, I think I mostly preferred the UX of pi as a harness to Claude Code, but my experience with the chinese models was worse than with Claude's models. They just felt significantly dumber than Sonnet 5.
Maybe that's partially up to the harness though, I'm not sure.
- chriswarbo 2mo agoI've found DeepSeek v4 models to run well in pi.dev I agree they're not as capable as Claude Sonnet, but they're much cheaper.
- eigenspace 2mo agoWell, they're cheap compared to Sonnet API costs, but the (heavily subsidized) subscription model for Claude is certainly cheaper.
