#13These and the Deepseek ones that were were cost reduced recently are perfectly capable models for the vast majority of light work and more. It's funny thinking the US companies are hiking prices and Chinese ones do the opposite, it's obviously an strategy, but pretty funny
How are these "capacity constrained" Chinese companies running inference without Hoppers and Blackwells ?
Huawei Ascend AI Accellerators. DeepSeek V4 model architecture was optimized for Chinese hardware.

Making their own NPUs for inference probably, you don't have to buy NVidia for inference. Google doesn't.

Can't be mistaken for someone like, ugh... Anthropic and OpenAI...

#16Like I said. China doesn't care about money. We want AI in people's hands.
I mean the AI companies probably just want to make American model pricing look ridiculous in comparison (it's working imo). I think the government probably wants actually-useful AI that could be put into chips and actually revolutionize factory work or mining or whatever. Large, SOTA models are not gonna change factory work but extremely efficient and optimized models may
Every industry-wide scale technological revolution has happened because government funded a technology and then opened it up to the masses. Just look at your iPhone: GPS, the internet, AI voice assistants, touchscreens, microprocessors, lithium-ion batteries, etc all came from gov't research (I'm counting Bell Labs' gov't mandated monopoly + research funding as gov't)
Economist Mariana Mazzucato wrote a great book about this called The Entrepreneurial State: Debunking Public vs. Private Sector Myths

#17Will try MiMo now. I have been mainly using just DeepSeek lately because of the fact that V4-Flash destroys basic work for basically 0 cost. Haven't exceeded even 50% of my OpenCode Go weekly limits using V4 Flash and Pro.

#18VSCode + Cline + Mimo v2.5 pro works ! great !. Give it a try.

#19Since the 3rd party providers on openrouter have all converged on much higher prices in serving these models (both mimo and dsv4), there's obviously a question on how/why are they lowering the prices so much.
It's possible they've finally integrated cheap(er) chinese chips. It's also possible they're just subsidising inference for real-world usage data. Interesting either way.

#20I worked part time with MiMo 2.5-pro over the last month, and barely managed to use 500 Million of the 700 Million tokens I had allocated. My plan was just upgraded to 38 BILLION tokens per month. That's at least 10X the tokens I've used in my entire agentic development so far. I should probably downgrade my plan, but we'll see. :)
Yep. I also got stupefied after I logged in and saw how many tokens they stuffed into my account...
