alt Hacker NewsNotice the pattern that Chinese providers are now:
1. Keeping models closed source.
2. Jacking up pricing. A lot. Sometimes up to 100% increase.

Qwen max has always been cloud only. And its a 1T+ model so it would be expensive

Are you talking about GLM 5.1, DeepSeek V3.2 or Kimi K2.6 (released one hour ago!)?
Oh wait, it doesn't apply to those…

Yeah, its almost like the casinos started rigging the game after they got all the addicts hooked. Who saw that coming???
If you overuse LLMs or get excited about them at all, you're ngmi and a complete idiot.
Huh yeah, that's truly a unique trait these Chinese companies don't share with companies in other countries.
