I am. I use Deepseek and free-tier ChatJippity and as a sometimes-better search.

EDIT: I also wasn't going to say it but it's not about the money for me, I just don't want to support any of these companies. I'm happy waste their resources for my benefit but I don't lean on it too often.

Well that's your problem, you are using Deepseek.

Its not even SOTA open source anymore, let alone competitive with GPT/Gemini/Grok.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Wasn't my point.

But this matters for your usage of LLMs.

I couldnt use GPT3 for coding and deepseek is at GPT3 + COT levels.

You're a little too focused on my dig about it being a "sometimes better search" which is fair.

I'm not going to be sending money every month to billion dollars companies who capitulate to a goon threatening to annex my country. I accept whatever consequences that has on my programming career.

Okay so you have some cognitive bias that is ruining your ability to make good decisions. Yikes.

Hush, child.
