Yeah, frankly if you have the free time to dig through all of that to find the best models or whatever for your use cases, good on you
I have code to write
I’m open to programming with LLMs, and I’m entirely fine with people using them and I’m glad people are happy. But this insistence that progress is so crazy that you have to be tapped in at all times just irks me.
LLM models are like iPhones. You can skip a couple versions it’s fine, you will have the new version at the same time with all the same functionality as everyone else buying one every year.
