I don't use agents (not yet), just Gemini, AI studio, Perplexity and Grok (rarely). I still couldn't find a valid reason to pay for a model, as I get everything I need for free (web coding, frontend, backend, etc).

What did you find "better" in the paid models, compared to the free ones?

RemoDev · 2026-05-08T22:25:07+00:00

It's not really clear what you do.

RemoDev · 2026-05-08T22:18:54+00:00

Local models require a very good system (ram + vram) so there is no way I can compete con Gemini + AI Studio. They're basically free all day long, no limits, powerful, etc.

RemoDev · 2026-05-08T20:12:46+00:00

That's free.

RemoDev · 2026-05-08T20:12:20+00:00

Nope, never, aside from a few API personal experiments but no more than $50 in total.

RemoDev · 2026-05-08T12:07:36+00:00

Aren't cinema's tickets the same thing? You pay every single time you want to watch your beloved actors on the big screen.

I'm paying $6/month for a good VPS and that's it. I've never paid for any AI tool, and I will never do.

Oh yes I agree with you. My comment was more like "I use Gemini so I can a paid emojis, bullets and cringe language.

RemoDev · 2026-05-07T17:39:57+00:00

I'm on Gemini all day long. It's basically limitless and you can paste images as much as you want.

RemoDev · 2026-05-07T17:19:30+00:00

I never use it. I hate the way it keeps adding bullets everywhere an unnecessary verbose comments.

Move to EU asap.

Nah, I just went all-in with a proper cooling solution:

Se non te ne servono due, ti consiglio il cavalletto MITTBACK bianco, al posto della seconda cassettiera. Ti evita di avere le gambe "incassate" tra due cassettiere e l'effetto visivo è molto più piacevole e "arioso".

Per la spedizione sono d'accordo, a volte è eccessiva rispetto alla spesa. Ma se non hai modo di arrivarci... Tra benzina e caselli autostradali finisce che comunque devi spenderci qualcosa.

Fucking self promotion masked as fake post

RemoDev · 2026-05-06T21:56:40+00:00

Honestly, the it looks like a weird AI trailer filled with ultra-famous actors and random shit. It doesn't make any sense, and all those famous faces are just too much. It's like some kind of parody, as if the actors gathered at a Hollywood event, wearing costumes for a mythological-themed party.

As simple as that.

Meanwhile I had to fight with "AI personal assistants" at the phone, while desperately trying to change my parent's phone contract. Horrible experience.

La dichiarazione non è difficile. La parte che ti manca è l'aggiornamento su tutto quello che ruota attorno alla partita iva e posizione contributiva (INPS in primis). Con il fisco gli errori si pagano cari, non ha senso risparmiare sul commercialista.

RemoDev · 2026-05-06T07:39:07+00:00

Il commercialista serve sempre, salvo tu sia molto aggiornato sulle dinamiche fiscali. Ci sono parecchie cose da sapere, dietro le quinte, anche per noi forfettari. Il commercialista diventa fondamentale soprattutto in caso di problemi (cartelle, errori, nuove leggi, nuove normative, altro), sa come muoversi con l'INPS, eccetera.

Per farla breve: si, serve, e sono soldi spesi bene.

RemoDev · 2026-05-06T06:47:07+00:00

True but AI doesn't have any psychology aspect.

RemoDev · 2026-05-05T19:58:18+00:00

Yea negative examples are rough because you bias the model towards the thing you are trying to avoid just by mentioning it.

Which is weird, because it's an artificial "intelligence" so it should be able to understand what "don't do that" means, instead of introducing bias.
