If they change their opinions in the future, they can reevaluate their stance and update their terms.
I love using LLMs for coding, but I think it's absolutely fine if people make different decisions. In fact, I think trying to maintain code repositories that are free of LLM-generated code is extremely valuable.
It rather feels to me that ads are destroying the Internet. The Internet did just fine before everything was full of ads, and it was a much better place.
I know that we live in a world where tech increasingly sucks, and positive comments on tech are (correctly!) seen as suspicious. The thing, though, is that Kagi is genuinely just a great product, and search is such a central part of using the Internet that good, trustworthy search makes a huge difference.
People keep pretending that Chinese companies only make second-class copies of American products until it's too late.
That margin is getting smaller and smaller. I would have been with you a week ago; paying for Fable was worth it compared to all other models. But with K3, the difference has shrunk to the point where, for me, it's not worth the cost anymore.
In other words, it may be worth paying five times as much to get 10% better real-world outcomes for a lot of people, but a lot fewer people will pay five times as much to get 2% better outcomes.
> a huge value is the Claude Code / Codex harness
For me, it's the opposite. Having to use Claude Code instead of the harness I prefer is a point against Anthropic, not for it.
There are confirmation dialogs in OpenCode. You can configure them using the permission config, same as Claude Code. Having said that, as a general rule, none of these harnesses are safe to run on your local file system.
What's more, people in prison usually don't stay there forever. The idea that it doesn't matter how we treat people in prison because "it's not a hotel" is not conducive to reintegration and is harmful to everyone, including you.
So I feel justified in classifying your comment as supporting my claim: "the US is so focused on culture wars that people can't visibly follow a vegan diet without being attacked for it."
But it's not like Fable is so substantially better than the other two that I would be seriously impacted if I didn't have access to it anymore. All three are amazing models, and of the three, Fable is the only one that regularly triggers refusals.
That's super cool; I bet that's a lot of fun to play around with. I wonder how much of this stuff just ended up in a landfill because it was too much effort to find buyers.
But setting an automatic prompt in the morning so limits are more sensible during the day and allow continuous work is just common sense.
So it's not that "limits went down"; it's that "the bonus offer ended as planned."
I see no evidence for that.
> if this were not the case, then we would be observing chinese models that far surpass frontier models
It's pretty clear that the primary reason for the difference is budget and compute availability. Chinese labs have at least an order of magnitude less money than Anthropic and OpenAI.
> what happens to these efforts when the subsidy is cut off?
They will continue making progress as they do now, minus the benefits of distillation.
