DeepSeek models have such good benchmark performance, amazing pricing, and the team over there seems to be widely considered impressive.
I just haven't found them to be very good? I've had a ton more success with the GLM models (since 5.2 anyway). Maybe I'm just holding it wrong, DS models seem to get stuck in loops or tell me nonsense. GLM feels like budget Claude.
It’s funny, in oh-my-pi I’ve had much better luck with DS 4.1 Flash than GLM 5.3 flash. Glm seems to just constantly reason in circles before attempting a tool call
