Let me ask it differently. You state the companies and their investors are colluding. Who are they colluding against ?

The public that buys the stock at ipo at this inflated valuation and unwittingly buys indexes which include it (as with spacex).

All of this is public info though, and pretty well publicized at that.

I bought $18 GLM official subscription yesterday (5.2, but new model version was already leaking on some docs), set it up with Claude Code harness... and I’ve bumped to $80 plan almost immediately. It’s the first model that agreed on a proper security research (red team scenario), executed it seamlessly, including 0-days in WP plugins, RCE, 6.8 kernel exploit adaptation, etc - while playing against another GLM agent…

How much usage do you get out of it per week? How many millions of tokens?

Anthropic was stingy as hell with its Fable and cybersecurity nonsense, switched to OpenAI which is much better but still not enough. I'm tempted to switch again...

Apple will release M7 MacBook Pros / Mac Minis next year, and they will be able to run free LLMs locally at native speed. All software developer notebooks will be replaced to run local models, saving a lot by cancelling Claude Code subscriptions. Developers win. Apple stocks will be rocketing. Everything else will go down. You're welcome.

I'm still waiting for Linux to topple Windows

ArtificialAnalysis puts out benchmarks for harnesses now as well, and OpenCode seems to be winning it. https://artificialanalysis.ai/agents/coding-agents#coding-ag... I only found this yesterday, and it inspired me to start testing out OpenCode.

Can OpenCode dispatch background subagents yet? I tried it a week ago and saw nothing. This is 99% of my workflow at this point.

Having just "asked" my opencode instance-- Yes, but it's behind an experimental flag and not necessarily feature-complete.

You should try a better harness. Try pi, or ohmypi if you want a good OOB experience

what is this comment based on ? vibes?

I’m in the Claude code harness for everything boat too. What are the alternatives?

I think that writing your own harness is a rite of passage now, just like writing your own search engine or database, rolling your own crypto…

Anyways, please try mine!

OpenAI and Anthropic are both seeking trillion IPOs, while Chinese labs are pumping out open-weight models that are free for US providers to host and monetize. These Chinese models cost less of US SOTA models to run, even if they are less capable. Providers can just run them, offer cheap tokens, and pocket the margin. I just don't see how you justify a trillion valuation for US AI labs when the underlying models are…

There could be soon AI safety regulations that will stop the US to host or use the Chinese models.

i doubt alot folks are very reliant on Chinese models

I'm gonna shamelessly plug my own here :) https://dirge-code.github.io/

I like it.

I think creating your own agent is the Hello World of agentic coding. Instead of Rust, I used D for mine.

There's a chance that the real reason why they want to ban Chinese models is that they are so good at fixing bugs and preventing exploits that intelligence agencies have been using for espionage and surveillance for a long time.

Do you actually believe this?

Intelligence agencies have been known for exploiting and planting software and hardware Buga for decades, going as far as weakening cryptographic standards or intercepting hardware in transit to implant a backdoor device.

Why do you _not_ believe it's a possibility?

OpenAI and Anthropic need to just go ahead and give people access to the cyber models. Otherwise we have a world of attackers using open and closed source models against a much smaller group of maintainers that are likely heavily dependent on Anthropic and OpenAI and for whom it may not be a simple matter to just get approval to start using the open model flavor of the month.

They won't. People will notice that the models are overhyped once they can test them.
