Comment on PewDiePie releases Codex/ClaudeCode/Cursor killer, Odysseous (FOSS)
onlinepersona@programming.dev 3 weeks agoWhat’s the quality of the answers though? And how much context can it hold? I imagine it’s only good for small, short questions, but have no concept of what is needed for that.
I’m assuming you’re using a 12b or 24b qwen model. The ones from deepseek go up to hundreds of billions of params and I can’t tell if bigger number is better or just meaningless posturing.

I’m using the 35b models.
Quality for qwen is mostly fine - sometimes it does hallucinate some shit while thinking, but it does correct itself almost every time. But the answers itself are, for the most part, precise and useful. Not what you know from the cloud models, obviously, but it’s absolutely fine for everyday use. What is actually annoying is the web search - not sure if that’s a qwen problem or a problem with open webui, but it actually takes a long time to finish the search.
I once had a situation where a model was running into an “infinite loop” while thinking, thinking the same line over and over again. And once, qwen just started outputting chinese halfway through the answer lol.
When it comes to context, I’m gonna be very honest - I don’t know. I have never hit any kind of problems or limits because of that since I’m not using AI over a long term project. I use it for small, concise cases and that’s it.
Didn’t downvote. I use AI, and not ashamed of it. I don’t write huge programs and I damn sure don’t release anything to the public mainly because, in the back of my mind, I can just see some poor chap using my code and now smoke is coming out of his server. It works for me. Usually it’s ‘write a script that does _________’ or Docker compose files. It seems pretty accurate for those uses and if I need a bash command sequence explained, it’s good for that too.
I also use AI when I master my audio tracks before I upload them. I am clinically deaf and there are some frequencies that I just can’t hear well enough to make a judgement call. It’s pretty good at that too.

Thanks for the response. It’s interesting to read about the experience of others.
