The author shares their experience relying on Chinese models (DeepSeek, Qwen, GLM) with Claude as a fallback. Testing Hy3 (21B active params), they found its coding and API integration performance surprisingly close to DeepSeek V3 and Kimi K3. Given DeepSeek's OpenRouter dominance and Qwen's Arena-Hard lead, the author questions the validity of the "gap" argument in real-world tasks.
