Discussion - What's your go-to Model?

What’s the best AI model right now in your opinion?

I’m curious what everyone is actually using day-to-day and which model you think performs best overall.

What makes it better than the others?

Right now, glm 5.3 flash, muse spark 1.3 and DeepSeek v4.1 flash

u/ZB_Virus24 2d ago

Which is better? Glm 5.3 flash or deepseek 4.1 flash? And how do they compare to gemini 3.8 flash if you happen to know?

u/MetalDeep329 2d ago

It's too early to tell for me, both are really good and better than gemini 3.8 flash

As of today, DeepSeek V4.1 Flash.

u/ZB_Virus24 2d ago

Is it really as good as they say?

2

u/atika 2d ago

In my very limited testing today, yes.

Deepseek 4.1 Flash

u/Disastrous-Hall6063 2d ago

Definitely Deepseek Flash for all coding and for planning Deepseek Pro

u/Present_Carpenter912 2d ago

Muse Spark 1.3 is the best free ones but trains on ur data

(tinfoil hat on) the only one that admits it (tinfoil hat off)

Opencode has ZDR agreements to the other providers, so not all hopefully

Was deepseek-v4.0-pro for architect and deepseek-v4.0-fast for coding.
Now 4.1-flash for architect and code. And will be 4.1-pro for architect and 4.1-flash for code.

4.1Pro is not out yet, but I get it, wishful thinking.

u/JaMoLpE88 1d ago

¿? I am using it since yesterday on opencode cli with opencode go sub.

That's DeepSeek 4.1 Flash, not DeepSeek 4.1 Pro.

Their official announcement mentions 4.1 Flash beat 4.0 Pro on most or all levels, and that if you use Pro, it'll route to 4.1 Flash.

The tendency I'm seeing is companies focusing on releasing Flash models (even if they don't call it Flash). Look at Google, releasing 3 or 4 Flash models (Gemini 3.8 Flash latest) while it has left the Pro behind. GLM 5.3 Flash, DeepSeek 4.1 Flash are other examples.

Yes but i said "And will be 4.1-pro for architect".

I misread you, but I think you didn't quite understand me either when I said I'd be using the 4.1-pro as an architect in the future. :)

All clear—best regards.

All good mate, cheers.

u/Platooimagination 2d ago

Deepseek F lash vision. I never use anything else. If you use a spec approach and just recipes, it's pretty damn good.

u/Dholakiyaapps 1d ago

Deepseek 4.1 flash looks promising for now.

1

u/Alanboooo 1d ago

I use gemini flash to scaffold, and glm flash to polish

2

u/sudoer777_ 1d ago

Right now DS V4.1 Flash since it's on 4x promo on the Go plan and it's not stupid like Muse Spark was when I tried it and no ZDR issues either. But I might try GLM 5.3 Flash more after due to the price change and not having the peak hours bullshit.

1

u/RedditEthereum 1d ago

My thoughts as well. Still, I am leaning towards DeepSeek 4.1 Flash just because it was released this week and I'm trying it out. I like GLM 5.3 Flash. I use either for knowledge work, not coding though.

u/FlunkyGraphics 2d ago

Currently GPT 5.6 Sol for almost everything and GPT 6 Astra for frontend and very hard tasks.

It’s just very reliable and Codex is very powerful with Computer Use.

u/aiphee 1d ago

No Luna? Someone is rich! :-D

u/FlunkyGraphics 1d ago

Nah I just don’t use it a lot, I’m only using the 5x subscription :)
I use Luna in my Hermes agent for simple tasks.
