    I don't have experience with opencode, so I couldn't tell you. Codex is really good in my experience, especially due to its native sandboxing. Deepseek seems really well versed in …

    One of the best things about this version is that it is trained in the codex harness. It feels just as good as OpenAI models in using codex tools, but extremely cheap and with 1M c…

    It is not that they don't release open weights, but some users report that they are significantly inferior to the closed versions.

    Assuming steady 1 tok/second generation (which seems to be the case for M5 Max macbook), wait 1 day for a 86400 token response. In some configurations it can be as slow as 0.1 tok/…

    Recently tried the pelican test on GPT-OSS which was probably one of the best local models of 2025. So cool to see how models have improved in the SVG pelican!

    Hopefully this distillation will lead Alibaba to release more powerful open weights LLMs, contributing to the democratization of AI.

    If your framework desktop is the 128G Strix Halo, I recommend giving Qwen 3.5 122B-A10B a shot. This Q5_K_M quant should be near lossless and fit with full 256K context in about 10…

    I don't feel like AI coding has ruined my skills, and I could go back to manual coding any time. However, I cannot build a good mental model of a software component that I didn't w…

    What I find fascinating is the idea that there might be a set of "secret" tweaks that when applied to those weights (or even smaller models) could result in an intelligence simulat…

    Not as much as Qwen, since apparently 3.6 35B surpassed Opus 4.7 https://x.com/simonw/status/2044830134885306701

    I don't think there's any incentive for Nvidia to make this a Windows-only device, so most likely it will be fully supported on Linux, just like their GPUs are.

    The official Q4_K_S gguf is quite good and has very good 35 tps generation on a M1 mac studio. Should be much faster on recent Macs, especially M5.
