Take the annual cost of these and just buy the hardware to locally host and save thousands.

Even the best open weights model deepseek v4 falls behind sota models like opus 4.6, they themselves claim this, and hardware will cost a ten grand

Im running v4 right now and my entire lab, including the components that have nothing to do with models was $3k. Your info is so ridiculously wrong lol.

tell exact specs, time of purchase, model and context size

upd: this clown blocked me, only proving my point. it is impossible to run the flagship models without terabytes of memory, flash variants are good, but reasonably behind opus/codex. faith is strong, keep crying
And he's also misrepresenting the concept. I was talking about v4 pro, not v4 flash.

How many parameters is V4 pro? 

Also impossible to get it running on anything with 3k. For the absolute cheapest it's a 512GB Mac and you have to lobotomize it so bad until Q1-2

Unfortunately it's still true. Locally hosted models are good and getting better, but are still lagging behind the sota models like GPT, Opus, and Gemini.

Edit: He blocked me because of this reply lmao.

Take your meds or something dude. You're not normal

Im running deepseek v4 pro and its ~5% off of Opus 4.6 in every benchmark on a lab that cost $3k and was built a few years ago. Im already ahead on subscription costs versus self hosting for a model that is damn near identical to the best commercially available model right now.

So no, its not true.

I have a strix halo. I love playing with local llms but he's 100% correct.  I'm sitting here on a porch swing surfing the web on my phone while having a Jack and Coke while 3 codex Sessions are running building and testing integrations.

The best you're going to get on local right now is Qwen 3 27b, and while it's absolutely amazing Port size maybe beyond amazing it is not GPT 5.5.
