I would imagine not single everyone on HN have enough disposable income that allow us to subscribe Claude Max or other similar max plan of other models without thinking.

Some people mentioned open weight model, but there are two hurdles. One the current economic mean securing the best hardware is already stupidly expensive compare to a year or two ago. And the open weight model lack the magic that Claude/Gemini/OpenAI put in the proprietary one, meaning one will have to create their own agent that is clever enough to search the internet when it knows its training data is stale.

I want my location to be in Singapore (Singapore SIM/Card etc) I want my UI to be in English. I want my Siri speaks Cantonese to me.

For reason on Apple knows why, I have to use English (Singapore) as my UI and Siri language or Apple Intelligence will not turn on. As if the engineer who develop Siri/Apple Intelligence have never think about the needs of those who speaks more than one language.
