Changing your LLM inference provider is the easiest switch in technology I can think of. It's quicker than taking off the case of your phone and putting on a new one.

Enough hardware and good models exist now that if you do get blocked from one place that viable alternatives do exist.

Thats true right up until you’re working with confidential info in a corporate context. Then it’s a multi month cross discipline cross jurisdiction project not an edit in a config file.

All data stays on computers that you control.

Same API. Localhost.

Try Mistral-Nemo-2407-12B-Thinking-Claude-Gemini-GPT5.2-Uncensored-HERETIC_Q4_k_m.gguf. This 7.5GB model runs well in llama.cpp on my 2021 Macbook Pro and is good at both coding and business document analysis tasks.

Thiss sounds like such a shitpost I initially thought you were joking... but this seems to be a real model???

There's a method to the madness:

- Mistral-Nemo: the actual model developed by Mistral and Nvidia.

- 2407: likely the release date of the base model, July of 2024.

- 12B: the model has 12 billion parameters.

- Thinking: the model operates in thinking mode (generates output plan and injests it before producing actual output).

- Claude-Gemini-GPT5.2: I think this means the model was finetuned with session data from Claude, Gemini, and GTP5.2 to replicate their behavior.

- Uncensored-HERITIC: the model was uncensored using the automated Heretic method.

- Q4_k_m: the model is quantized (lossy compression) to ~5 bpw from orignal 16 bpw.

		Yea, I know what the parts individually mean. I just meant as a whole it just seemed so obsurd.

It is! I like to try the variations from possibly 'interesting' people.

Some of them are good. Others randomly break into gibberish and Chinese poetry(?).
