| You say that now, but you don't know what the future models will be capable of. If models get ridiculously good, you might not be perfectly fine with that. |

| Yep, fully satisfied with DS 4.1 Flash or GLM 5.3 Flash. I prefer using one chat at a time, actually thinking through things with it, as opposed to the YOLO run all night multi-agent thing. I mean I’m still okay with subagents if my main thread needs to explore a few options and then report back, but all on the same idea. |

| The thing here for me is not that I’m unable to solve problems with my brain, it’s that I value the automation in labor provided by coding agents. I do not want future advancements to be locked behind proprietary doors. |

| ▲ | ashkankiani an hour ago | parent [-] | | I agree with that but the cat is out of the bag now. Unless you believe in exponential improvement (which I don’t), the open models might be at a resource disadvantage, but that doesn’t mean that they can’t catch up or surpass the closed ones. Throwing money at a problem doesn’t guarantee success. I mainly just want to point out the value of human ingenuity coupled with a model like DS4.1 is technically enough to get most people to where they want to go, and that includes smarter open models. |

| How do you run DS 4.1 Flash if your computer isnt powerful and everything? |
| |
| ▲ | ashkankiani 3 hours ago | parent [-] | | It can run on one strix halo machine, which is what I have. For everything else, there’s a vibrant community brute forcing more efficient engines and quantizations. There’s a minimum bar right now, so it depends on your hardware. | | |
| ▲ | fooblaster 3 hours ago | parent [-] | | you have 5k$ of ram in a strix halo? | | |
| ▲ | ashkankiani 3 hours ago | parent [-] | | I bought my box for $3k last year because I hadn't updated my PC since the first threadripper 1950x, and the Strix Halo is the only x86 with unified memory that's optimized for the kind of CPU intensive stuff I do, and they finally have proper AVX512 too. It was the perfect upgrade for me (except for lack of PCIe 5 & ECC), which coincidentally happened to be perfectly positioned for local inferrence. and I liked it so much (and saw that the RAM drought was going to last for at least a few years) so I bought a second one to use as a general server for myself and my family. |

| The fact that you point to the latest model as „I’d be fine with that“ proves my point. If expectations were static you’d be fine with qwen 2.5…but nobody sane says that today. It’s a moving target thus we need open weights to move |
