Is reversing with Deepseek just as good?
Self host a QWEN model on a budget server build.
American AI is so centralized that utilizing AI, as an end user without having some loser looking over your shoulder or demanding a monthly fee, is difficult.
I think the harder part I face is setting up qwen to be effective for my uses
This almost feels like some sort of oxymoron.
The legitimate developers I know aren't hit by Claude restrictions, because they don't fucking use it.
Gotta say... The Playstation debacle and resulting backlash has somewhat changed my mind on AI as a coding tool.
I still don't like it, ethically and economically, but if "they" are going to use it to cut costs and punch down, then we can use it to invalidate them and punch up.
I doubt it will make the next great game or piece of software, but it can absolutely let us take a ps5 exclusive and run it on a PC.
Again, we still need actual developers who know what and why they do what they do, same with artists... but enabling a home-brew hobbyist to put mario kart in skyrim or whatever is pretty neat. Just wish it didn't seem to require clear cutting a forest.
Why just games? What about the Photoshop clone? Seems like making a derivative of anything should be blocked, but that's all it can really do in the first place.

So we should get rid of anything in-the-likeness-of? Like Libre Office Writer being in the likeness of Microsoft Word.
Major software companies and publishers are realising AI companies put their profit motive at risk.
Why buy the latest Mario game when you can have a version custom built for you? Why get an Adobe subscription when the cloned version is available?
That can be applied to any software now. Two industries are facing off.
This is why AI generated content should belong to EVERYONE. There should be no profit in it, because the content used belongs to humanity.
AI should belong in the history book of bad technologies, alongside with leaded fuel and asbestos.
Hilarious
"Give us all your code for free who cares about copyright anyway"
"NOOOO YOU CANT USE OUR PRODUCT TO GET FRE CODE 😡😡😡"
AI exists to aid capital against you; not aid you against capital.
AI exists to devalue human labour.
I can only talk about software developers, but there it's fucking pants on head to fire developers. It only makes sense if you don't have any competitors.
More than 50% of software projects fail either because they run over time or over budgetl, but for obvious reason both. So you get this tool that increase your output, let's say 10x. Does that mean that you can fire 9/10 developers? What does your competitors do? If they retain their developers they can smoke your company in months.
The reason a lot of these enterprises are looking to offload developers is because they see AI as accelerating their workforce. These businesses are doing the same thing as they were before, but with AI, which means they don't have enough workload to justify having that many people on anymore (as long as they are using AI workloads). If one developer with AI can do the work of 3 to 10 developers without AI the logic is that they can have their developer headcount and still be ahead.
Not that I agree with what they're doing, but this is the logic behind it.
This assumes 10x the features at 2/3 the quality is a winning bet
The quality doesn't matter. Look at a product like netsuite which dominates corporate accounting. It's a total piece of shit. And overpriced one at that. But it has oracle in the name, so an executive can choose it with little thought and not take any blame because it was a "reasonable" choice that "everyone" uses. Much of corporate life is monkey see monkey do. Rarely does innovation happen because trying something different is a huge risk to some middle manager or execute that is just trying to make it to the next promotion or bonus.
Maybe your are right, software that checks all the boxes wins b2b deals even if it is a peice of shit
