I wonder why it apologized, seemed like a perfectly coherent crashout, since being factually correct never even mattered much for those. Wonder why it didn’t double down again and again. What a time to be alive, watching the token predictio

I still enjoy using GLM 4.7 on Cerebras because of the speed you can get there and the frankly crazy amount of tokens they give you. Before that, 4.6 messed up file edits in OpenCode and VSC plugins more frequently, 4.7 is way more dependab

I’m pretty sure that the answer to that question is positive: those who have worked with code that sparks joy won’t like interacting with it closely being taken away, whereas the people for whom the code they have to work with inspires mise
