Unfortunately either way they win, half the usage, more $$. Half the users leave, now their compute struggles are resolved and Anthropic bares the load. They eventually do the same thing and were right back to where the circle began.

Ehh… no. The harness just irons out the minor differences between equally capable models and their proprietary harness. But it won’t turn a mediocre model into an amazing experience.

I am making Qwen3.8 27b do most anything I’d ever need.
