i prefer qwen max 2.5 myself as deepseek is just bogged down if you arent using their api

What do you mean by bogged down? What model are you running, on what hardware?

using https://www.deepseek.com/. It's simply slow. Same with R1 (free) through openrouter. I also pay for their api via openrouter and it's not fast either.

I use both and compare answer, when is coding related and both give me different answer I feed the answer of one onto the other and ask them to explain why I should use their version instead of this other one, back and forth a couple of times and they tend to converge into something better.

At this point isn't it faster to just code it yourself?

I found it to be a good excercise, they keep correcting and commenting on each other code and I end using some adaptation if what they give me.

In my day to day job, I usually just write with pandas and with pretty specific processes tied to Brazilian insurance regulation, so they can't really code what I need.

I've been generally trying to keep my AI usage down, but when I absolutely need it, im more happy to support open source software.
