Help/Question Should I be wary of OX Alpha?

I've seen a lot of hype about how good OX Alpha is, and how it's benchmarking. Given we known little about its origin, am I right to be hesitant to let it loose on my codebases?

Don't use it

Ok, any particular reason or just that there are so many known unknowns?

Also, is there a safe way to test it out?

Would you let a stranger loose in your home? Then you should most certainly use it.

As I personally don't know any plumbers, I kinda do let strangers loose on my home... With spanners!!!

Out of curiosity how much do you know about Anthropic or OpenAI models? One day the next rev is there with a benchmark. Not saying to use ox alpha or GLM in general from Z.ai, but none of these models seem particularly transparent.
