| My problem is how hot they run. I'm on an m4 pro. Do you have the same issue? |

| ▲ | jonplackett 28 minutes ago | parent | next [-] | | It’s hot and also LOUD and runs the battery down quick. But I’m having a lot of luck just running things when I’m away from the computer and can leave it plugged in. It starts going weird (unreliable and slow) with context over 80k so you have to pick tasks one at a time and baby sit a lot more than Claude. But it really is very capable and feels like there’s an intelligence there to talk to. Maybe gpt-4 level clever? I have an m5 max 64gb and I think anything slower would be quite painful. | |

| how quick does it respond? what are specs of your laptop? |

| ▲ | Gareth321 29 minutes ago | parent | next [-] | | I tried it on my M1 MacBook Pro. It's slow but surprisingly smart as a general purpose LLM. Maybe GPT-5.3 level. I gave it a bunch of tools and it can search the internet, make product recommendations, document, code, etc. | | |
| ▲ | alexpotato 14 minutes ago | parent [-] | | Had the same reaction so had Grok create a script to: - find a free GPU droplet on digital ocean - fire it up - pull in a snapshot of the model + extra files/packages etc - set up a ssh tunnel so that the localhost:8000 routes to the above Then I just configured OpenCode to use the above and was off to the races. Works out to be about ~$2/hr all said and done which isn't bad as I only pay when I'm using it (but could get expensive with 24/7 running) |

| ▲ | chorlton2080 an hour ago | parent | prev [-] | | Does it need to respond fast? For important applications, I'm sure we'd all be fine waiting 20 minutes for a high quality, usable answer. Or is it the need for interative refinements that make speed relevant? | | |
| ▲ | jonplackett 27 minutes ago | parent [-] | | It requires patience but it’s more like waiting 5 mins for it to do tasks. You need to be much more involved though and do things slower than Claude where you can trust it to do a lot of tasks at once. It doesn’t have the context for that |
