Trained entirely on Huawei chips and priced at roughly 6x less than its proprietary rivals, it’s one of the strongest open-source models available today . It makes the most sense if you need a capable model but can’t or don’t want to rely on proprietary APIs. Think GDPR-compliant self-hosting, high-volume workloads on a budget, or coding and agentic tasks where the benchmarks put it in the same league as the closed-source competition. The usual caveats apply. Benchmarks don’t always translate to real-world usability, but the gap is narrowing fast. submitted by /u/Delicious_Air_737
