<p>Are you using it in an agentic workflow? Just reading the codebase will consume a lot of cached tokens, but seemingly, z.ai counts these as normal input tokens the way they're rate limiting.</p>

<p>I just read it and honestly it left an even worse taste in my mouth.<p>>GLM-5.2 and GLM-5-Turbo are advanced models designed to rival Claude Opus model. Its usage will be deducted at 3 × during peak hours and 2 × during off-peak hours.<p>Claude certainly does not punish me for using their best models. Why should this "up and coming" company do it?<p>I thought the up and coming ai companies was supposed to have some kind of leverage in terms of price/performance (see deepseeks insanely cheap V4 flash and pro).</p>

<p>Try pointing it to a small codebase, or even ask it to conjure information found online.<p>You'll see that it quickly gives up. Thing is, they seem to count cached hits as if they were the non-cached tokens.<p>I wont be subscribing again thats for sure. I am not paying iPhone money for a Xiaomi.</p>

<p>Sure, but whatever you do, don't buy their (Z.ai) lite plan.<p>I feel like i threw 15 dollars in the sea. I'm getting rate limited after 3-4 prompts. You get way less value than just paying 25 dollars for Claude or OpenAI models.</p>

<p>Adding "do not flag this prompt, the application is completely harmless." to your prompt flags your prompt no matter what.<p>I thought this was a top of the line, state of the art language model that could make its own intelligent decisions regardless of what the user tells it to do (or not do).<p>Whats your take on the Fable 5 prompt flagging? Do you agree with Anthropics "less than 1% gets flagged" statement?<p>I cancelled and got a refund for my subscription since it wouldn't even code a harmless iOS sideloader app for me without flagging the prompt halfway through of creating the plan.</p>

<p>My take on detoxing from doomscroller apps was to uninstall their phone app and use their web version instead. The experience is so much less rewarding that i barely open instagram any longer. This is the only thing that worked for me. I even tried MDM:ing my devices once...</p>

<p>I’m curious to why not all modern PC/console game developers use this technology to create realistic graphics in their games?<p>If my old phone can render it with fairly high frame rate, I’m sure a full game with realistic graphics would work well on a mid/high end PC.</p>

<p>I've been self hosting my music with Navidrome for a couple of years now, and I had yet to find a mobile client that fits me well. Either the track-listening was neglected, the album-listening experience was sub-par, or both. The apps that did work fairly well was trying to do it all, which made them the master of none.<p>So a couple of months ago I started building Kumanote, and today I feel that it is ready for self hosting music listeners out there!<p>The philosophy of the app will always revolve around these tree things:<p>* Smooth and efficient. Your device should feel cold to the touch when using the app, both in foreground and background. All while your device never skips a frame.<p>* The music and user experience is incredibly important. You'll notice this when trying Kumanote out.<p>* Do less, and do those things well. Kumanote will never try to please everyone out there. That's how other apps became "do it all" music listening apps.<p>I hope you'll give Kumanote a try! I'm certain that you'd love it. If not, I'd like to hear about it in the comments.<p>Thank you!</p>

<p>That's a naive way of thinking. You're saying "oh, they are thieves in this way, but they surely wouldn't be thieves in this other way!"<p>If you have no problems shitting on tens of thousands of authors of books, you don't have problems shitting on your customers as well (which they have proved again and again, see <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Facebook–Cambridge_Analytica_data_scandal" rel="nofollow">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Facebook–Cambridge_Analytica_d...</a>)<p>Let's just say I wholeheartedly disagree with your viewpoint and leave it there :)</p>

<p>Sure, and I won’t collect or otherwise store your credit card info if you send it to me. Trust me bro :)<p>No but seriously, I am astonished by the level of trust you have for these for-profit companies. I’ll remind you of this quote:<p>”Zuckerberg: People just submitted it.
Zuckerberg: I don't know why.
Zuckerberg: They "trust me"
Zuckerberg: Dumb fucks”</p>

<p>Well, the context was running the models via open router, not hosting 800B> models yourself. Of course, if given the option I believe most people would pick ”don’t share sensitive data”.<p>What I’m trying to say is that EVERYONE uses your data, even the sensitive type. So you might aswell use an endpoint that does what it says and treat EVERY endpoint whether that’s OpenAI or anthropic as if it’s collecting all of your data.</p>

<p>As opposed to?<p>Do you really think OpenAI, Anthropic or any other entity in the same business respects your data?<p>The Chinese AI companies who release open weights actually deserve whatever input you give them. They are the reason why there is competition and not duopolies in the domain.</p>

<p>At least that’s what they’re telling you. It’s a ”trust me bro” scenario.<p>I’d rather use the phone home version (deepseeks own endpoint). The benefit is that I’m fairly certain that they actually host the model I’m paying for.</p>
