That said, I really like mistral.ai for pretty much all my LLM stuff. I have one that runs locally. It's no magic bullet but it's a competent little LLM and more efficient than ChatGPT, and you're not supporting "OpenAI" with your data, so that's good.

Yeah I only went back to ChatGPT because someone said that it recently got much better at coding… but I’m suspicious that the person who said it doesn’t know much about coding, especially not something of a decent size 😅
I like how people always have opinions on stuff they don't understand and stick with products that are inferior lol!
AIs cannot do anything close to software engineering, yet. LLMs always have to be prompted by someone who knows what they're doing. So when people have no clue, it looks impressive lol
