I very much want this to be true, I would shift as much of my workload as possible to local models. But is qwen 3.8 really good enough to do reverse engineering work? Is it because you have many sessions running at once, so it can "brute force" its way through problems?
Many sessions working in parallel breaking a problem into small parts can chew through any complex task I have been able to imagine. Even complex software reproducibility and compiler bugs that previously I spent months solving as one of something like a dozen people in the world with substantial expertise in this area.
I literally put 3 GPUs in a machine and let it crank for 2 weeks until it built a microkernel OS for itself and wrote its own network driver to get online a few days ago.
I am not sure many more complex problems in software exist than that.
There is no reason for me to ever subscribe to any AI providers other than maybe code-review diversity from different models.
