I just got Qwen 3.8 Flash Next running locally. It’s damn good on an older machine with a newer GPU. Local LLMs should scare them the most.

Yeah but who’s making the models?
Replying to @ssfckdt@lemmy.blahaj.zone
Mostly Chinese companies that aren’t necessarily required to generate infinitely compounding profits just to continue existing.
Edit: Also third parties such as volunteers who fine tune models for specific purposes. Just like with all software - everyone can learn and contribute when it’s open source.
