Meanwhile Deepseek is cutting inference costs to mere cents. Thats the real AI revolution for you.

Yes I switched from claude code to opencode with deepseek recently.

It is basically indistinguishable from sonnet. At this point my own prompts, AGENTS.md, background docs and so on matter a great deal more than the differences between models.

And deepseek v4 flash (the sonnet comparable) costs 3% of what sonnet does.

Same here. I use codex for planning and deepseek v4 flash for implementation. Its worked really well so far.
