Weren’t they claiming their party is opposed to over regulation and critiqued EU for that or something? Funny, that. Anyways, this seems like pretty good PR for Anthropic: “Our models are so powerful even the government forbid us from expor

Personal experience: for overall software development, DeepSeek V4 Pro (Max reasoning) is pretty fast and generally okay - it does fuck up regularly though and I’d compare it with maybe Sonnet. It’s also quite affordable, at my current usag
