    • @zenvanriel
      @zenvanriel วันที่ผ่านมา

      For day-to-day coding I actually agree with you as this video is more of a technical curiosity and possibility than something I would use as a daily driver. Especially given you need a powerful PC to even run the best local models. However, this video is meant to inspire a lot of long-term possibilities. I believe local models will evolve to the point that there will be specialized models that are continuously fine tuned for specific frameworks which will ensure you get very relevant up-to-date answers. In that world you would want to use a local model for a more obscure framework that a huge model like Claude 3.5 Sonnet is not specialized in. The fact that Qwen comes relatively close to these best-class commercial models is indicative of that trend. For the time being though, you're absolutely right that a model like Sonnet is just fine for daily use.

    Great warnings for everyone. We are likely to see an increase of games (scams) like this over time. I could see benefit for this type of approach if companies treat it as a bug bounty, where there's no "bet" being placed, only a reward if you manage to jail break the app.

    • @zenvanriel

      The issue is that every request you make in Cursor HAS to go through their server. Once it goes through their server they cannot route the request to your localhost, so you'll need to make sure the Cursor servers can reach your local models.

      That's a limitation of Cursor right now yes, but in my view changing the chat model does add value.
