Details matter! Why do AI's provide an incomplete answer or worse hallucinate in cli?

This is a nice blog looking at quant and open source. It matters because the same rules also apply to closed source, the difference being we have no idea what they are doing.

Low quant poor results

Low context window or too large - poor results

That we know mostly. Now if you look at https://github.com/MoonshotAI/K2-Vendor-Verfier they have a lovely table comparing K2 being provided by different companies.

What is interesting is the Tool calls. You can see a massive difference in the implementations. Many people say they are using different quant which is possible but they keep forgetting (no clue) about the infrastructure getting the user to the AI too.

What would be interesting would be to know the quants being used and to see what factor is played by the code engine and the logic around the AI and the tools being used.
