    Right? Qwen 3.6 27B is fantastic, for example. Data centers need to stop hoarding all the hardware so we can afford to run models like that.

      Yeah I’m using that as we speak actually.
      Qwen studio mobile app is free - I’m running 3.6 plus model it’s free.
      Same with recent kimi, minimax, deepseek models are great - all these companies have mobile apps and coding agents I can pay and use today. https://qwen.ai/qwencode

      Already it’s leaked that cursor’s composer 2.0 model is based on Kimi 2.5.

      Anthropic/openai sky high valuations are based on a notion they will be that ones left standing and bunch of humans gonna be fired and companies gonna be paying ai rent. But that assumes little competition. What we are seeing is totally different - open models caught up, china actively selling it. US ai companies thus will never be able to just jack prices - as there is tons of competition.
