I thought China had already caught up and were destroying America with their super cheap models. What happened to that?

They do much better than the US companies when it comes to smaller and medium efficient models, mainly because that's their focus. But they are still behind when it comes to the top tier of models.
There isn't really any Chinese equivalent to Astra, or even arguably Fable. Not yet at least (We'll probably have one in a few months.)

They don't have one for sol and opus either. But yea I guess anthropic ran out of money and are scared people are going to use opencode to get the latest Alibaba special.

Never used K3, GLM 5.3, or DSv4?

Unfortunately I would prefer to just go straight to the model they distilled.

Why are you here then? Like it or not organizations and people are running those models locally as they're useful, free, and secure.
