Because when something is open-source, reseaechers are more prone to adopt them. Companies pay less, and the market will be your. Instead of centralizing trhough open ai añi or microsoft azure, the let you run those models on your stack. You domt need to pay fees there. More people get involved, the models grows, you have free qa and developers working on the product. Alibaba is getting a lot of revenues just because people are switching to their infrastructure.

I use a lot of models and Chinese ones are the best. They are a bit restricted for certain fields, but not more than Microsoft phi models. And they are imcredibly cheaper even when using inference APIs.

Mate people feel hacky if they use VIM to write code. Double the time, and corrections commits all the time

Had some juniors who was git diffing in the terminal PRs of 20 more files with 200 changed lines. A newly appointed senior told them that was the best approach. Needless to say there had always to be some follow up push after they opened the PR on web. U dont need ai, but you need a fucking GUI.

I mean, we didn’t need grok to know this.
