Just to play devil’s advocate: you can’t compare Qwen to a (proprietary/closed source) hosted model and deduce that Qwen is overthinking, as Qwen gives you the full reasoning/think…

I would have the same concerns but note that backup generators aren’t just run when needed but also have a weekly/monthly quota of hours they need to run for both testing and keepi…

Does the page actually load for anyone? I get stupid spa skeleton spinners.

It gave the svg for the wheels in the reasoning trace then forgot to include them in its final answer. Lol.
