Which Flash To Run — 五個便宜模型的成本與能力實測

一句話摘要: 五個便宜模型沒有總冠軍——日常主力邊際成本零的是 baicodex(qwen3.8-flash),按量最划算且 agentic 四軸全第一的是 opzcode(GLM-5.3-Flash),要 WebSearch 或要快才輪到 deepcode。其餘差別不在牌價,而在到期日、隱形 thinking 與權限的前提。 2026-08-27 實測,主角是五個便宜選項:三家 Flash(Qwen3.8-Flash、GLM-5.3-Flash、DeepSeek V4 Flash Vision-Exp)、Muse Spark 1.2 contributor、Dots3-Note preview:free。先講結論,再攤帳單與數字。 結論:按「你現在要做什麼」選…

Original Chinese Read in English

This brief summarizes a recent experiment comparing five inexpensive AI models for various tasks. The models tested include baicodex (Qwen3.8-Flash), opzcode (GLM-5.3-Flash), deepcode (DeepSeek V4 Flash Vision-Exp), musecode (Muse Spark 1.2 contributor), and deepcode (DeepSeek V4 Flash Vision-Exp). The analysis reveals that while there is no single "best" model, each has its strengths depending on the specific use case.

Baicodex is the most cost-effective option with zero marginal cost, while opzcode offers the best agentic performance across four dimensions. Deepcode is the fastest and best for web searches, whereas musecode is the only free option. The article also provides a cost breakdown and runtime considerations for each model, highlighting the importance of considering factors beyond just price when selecting an AI model for a specific task.

GPT-5.6 Sol vs Terra vs Luna: A Cost-Aware Router in Python

The useful question about GPT-5.6 is not “Which model is best?” It is “Which part of this workflow actually needs Sol?” OpenAI now positions the family in three tiers: Model API ID Input / 1M tokens…

  • GPT-5.6 models have Sol, Terra, and Luna tiers with different pricing.
  • Sol tier costs $4.00 per 1M input/output tokens, Terra $2.00/$12.00, Luna $0.20/$1.20.
  • Task attributes like ambiguity and review need determine model selection.
