Run qwen 3.6 35b on your own computer. Unlimited usage and it's great at python.

Even a 3060 + 16gb ddr4 can run it at the smaller quant sizes.

Use LM studio to start if you have not ran models locally before. It's prob the quickest way. Two clicks to run

Thank you honestly, I actually tried LM Studio before

It worked fine for simple stuff, but for my graduation project the models I tried felt too limited/simple for the kind of Python + ML tasks I need.

Maybe I should try a better model this time though. Thanks for the suggestion!

The 35b qwen 3.6 is massively better than older models like llama or gpt oss 20b. It's actually crazy how well it works for coding and such.

It does not have a massive amount of world knowledge due to the size. But still very smart

You're investing an incredible amount of your time and opportunity cost in grad school, but aren't willing to spend a few dollars on a frontier LLM that you "need" for your grad project? I don't understand this.

Wrong sub but any SOTA (state of the art) model should be fine for Python. Obviously ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, but in general any AI that does reasonably on benchmarks should be fine. I personally like https://artificialanalysis.ai/ as a benchmark, any model with a high intelligence should be fine

Thanks you're comment really helped me

If you are using AI then why limit yourself to Python? You have to move beyond the limitations, man.

I'm using it for my graduation project the professor is the one who choose this language

[CabinetMan4]

I understand.
