Nope, I'll still buy Claude because the overall XP is better than Kimi and Qwen who literally copied basic harnesses to make kimi-cli and qwen-cli, respectively.

Also, you can tell if a model is genuinely powerful and well-thought-out vs a model that acts like it.

It's like Apple vs Xiaomi/Huawei. Sure, you can get a Huawei with bells and whistles, but most people learnt the hard way that those companies just copy the iPhone, so might as well get the real deal.

As somebody who bought an iPhone the day it became available and has been using iPhones for years, my favorite phone I've ever owned is my Huawei Mate XT Ultimate.

People keep pretending that Chinese companies only make second-class copies of American products until it's too late.

Lol yet I've used Apple and Android phones extensively and would choose Android every single time.

Almost the same thing for twice the price, just for the pleasure of saying that you believe Apple was first?
