They already have with qwen3.5

I agree with the previous post that there's hope that there's a convergence point in the not too distant future where consumer hardware can run powerful models. At the moment, the 397Bn Qwen3.5 model (which I assume is what you're referring to) is still out of reach of most consumers to run locally: the only relatively straightforward path (i.e. discounting custom Threadripper builds) to running it would be a 512Gb M…

I was referring to the 35B version. It is surprisingly good for its size. You can use it for implementation tasks without it going off the rails

I was just about to change from OpenAI to Anthropic, however when signing up I get this message: > Unfortunately, Claude is not available to new users right now. We're working hard to expand our availability soon. That's unfortunate timing.

You can always use z.ai or minimax

I asked z.ai, "Which is the best model for coding"

Here's the response:

```

As of late 2024, there isn't one single "best" model for every situation, as performance depends on whether you need raw coding intelligence, speed, or integration into your workflow.

However, the current consensus among developers places Claude 3.5 Sonnet at the top for pure coding ability.

Here is a breakdown of the best models for coding right now, categorized by their strengths: ...

```

So they have data until late 2024 and nothing beyond? They don't even perform a web search. Doesn't seem to be on par with other frontier models.

PSA: Export your ChatGPT conversations before cancelling If you're thinking about cancelling (or switching to Claude/Gemini), don't lose months of conversations first. I built Basic Memory — it imports your ChatGPT export and turns it into plain Markdown files. Every conversation becomes a file you can actually read, search, and use with whatever AI you switch to. This is not an ad. It is free and open source. Your d…

I suspect that the export feature is going to be "broken" for a good long while; I've been waiting for mine since 8 am ... a little over 5 hours now.

It took exactly 24 hours, to the minute, from the time I received the "we're generating an export" file until I got the download link, so guessing they're either batching it or deliberately sending after 24 hours because it adds friction to the account deletion process.

Posting it here as a top-level comment as many people asked why boycott just openAi: ----- openAI is the least trustworthy of the Big LLM providers. See S(c)am Altman's track record, especially his early comments in senate hearings where: * he warned of engagement-optimisation strategies, like social media, being used for chatbots / LLMs. * also, he warned that "ads would be the last resort" for LLM companies. Both o…

The reason this is on the front page now is because of Altmans recent deal with the department of war, not because of these general grievances.

link to get up to speed on that?

You should try it on real tasks. You can use it with opencode.
