Are you sure about that?
when I checked a few weeks ago I did not really find anything competing per value with a 20x Codex subscription.

That’s only one metric. It doesn’t matter how cheap it is, if it continually fails to solve a problem.
Yes they’re getting better. No, I don’t think this will be a panacea. If only for the fact that this is China (more specifically the CCP) after all - they’ve got their own plan, and altruism is not part of it.

Don't you think open weight Chinese models will be the first thing they start banning once the regulation of this industry starts to kick in?
