I just hope that they’ll soon also have like 35B or 80B (like the older Qwen3 Next or thereabout) MoE models that can be run locally. Like, throw us a bone, we all know we need SOTA for lots of dev work anyways, but at least some tasks can

Also, just to be clear, the AI generated videos are quite trash. However, you could imagine that maybe with a decade of refinement they'll get better - the existing prompting and composition were okay, it's just that they were pla

I don’t think a 128B model will be that competitive with a 2.8T model. If anything, one should wonder why Mistral is so expensive in the current day.

I hope some day they just train the models to be better, the slop writing is insanely frustrating and I don't think there's a good reason for things to be that way (in other words, they just trained it badly) https://bl

Yeah, my bad, though I’ve also heard those arguments more or less said genuinely - on one hand people hold LLMs to some unreasonably high standard, expecting to one shot apps before being deemed good, and on the other just outputting slop w

In VSCode: Cline or KiloCode are both good. In the terminal: you can get Claude Code or others working but honestly OpenCode or Pi might be better with many models.
