The OP said “ But why give Anthropic/openai our money? Nonsense. Use open models”
replyThen I’d be giving money to openrouter and a Chinese model provider, is that better?
Yes, it is better. They are releasing open models, unlike Anthropic. Additionally other (non-chinese) companies run the open models, so if that is the issue you have options.
reply"If you don't pay for a product, you are the product". That's always been emphasized on HN threads related to FB, Google, etc.
replyAre LLMs different?
