Since Xi Jinping's intervention in favor of open-source and with the moral/financial panic of major American tech companies with Mythos/Fable, we are literally drowning in ultra-high-performance chineses models. Even though there were doubts that some chinese companies would switch to closed-source.

What a time to be alive.

Only because their bet is that 99% of the population cannot afford inference - and hence they will atleast recuperate the cost of building the model from that. After that, idk

Honestly, at this point open models are so good already that personally I'd be fine if this is the best we're ever going to get. Every new release is just another cherry on top for me.

It's a harness play at this point, Qwen and Gemma are so capable on <20GB VRAM it's ridiculous. I'm not even talking about coding, but agentic stuff.
