    All that keeps jumping out at me is how they've set it to refuse giving users thinking tokens and prompts for full reasoning in output. Just drives me further away; I may not stop using Claude completely for now, but I'll be moving even more of my primary workload to Chinese providers. That's where openness and freedom is now at.

      I mean there is a good reason for that, no? Distillation is an issue.

        Is distillation an issue that stops you from picking a model, while scraping/torrenting as much of the Internet as possible is fine?

        It's not like Anthropic and OAI have clean hands, especially as they're now racing each other to appear the most dangerous to civilization.
