(I have no experience with running anything locally, maybe it's a stupid question)
Also opencode tracks you by default. Its not safe. Every first prompt you send is routed through their servers, logged and they can use your data however they want
Ask AI to look at the code for you
We don't have any proof they're not logging everything, by default we should assume they are
OpenCode Zen is their own service provider; they see your prompt the same way OpenAI and Anthropic do. Somebody has to see your code, unless you host your models yourself.
The American firms are not demonstrating escape velocity and as long as china offers something somewhat comparable and offers it at a very low price to compensate for any difference in quality, they will not be generating enough in cash flows to finance reinvestment. I highly doubt they’ll be able to continue raising external financing for numerous periods from here on out - they gotta start showing strong financials and that they are running away from the open source models.
Already DeepSeek v4 is being hosted on Huawei Ascend 950. What do you think those cost relative to NVIDIA gear?
Not only that but other countries are very unlikely to follow suit, so it is just a straight-up productivity tax on the US.
that surprised me too. The intelligence is at the client, and by making that open, anthropic has commoditized the coding agent.
