Of course it's faster & cheaper when it's being censored & can't access half of human history because the fucking ccp finds it offensive.

As opposed to reddit censoring Israel genociding Palestine and Luigi ?
Reddit is total trash too.
The model itself is probably not censored. The censorship comes on top. Preliminary tests already show how this can be circumvented.
If censorship would make it cheaper then surely it wouldn't be that much cheaper than OpenAI. Different things are being censored and blocked but surely, your suggestion is a bit silly.
Your comment is a bit silly. The CCP engages in currency manipulation amongst other nefarious actions to prop up its interests. It was likely created from stolen data & heavily propped up by the government, just like various other projects that were supposedly Chinese "innovations" but looks remarkably like their western competitors.

Yeah? So does the US. Didn't make OpenAI cheaper, did it?

Just like ChatGPT was created with stolen content.
heavily propped up by the government
Still only 6 million. Keep coping tho lol
It's "though" learn to spell
"Heh, that's a cool argument you made but sadly you also made a MINOR SPELLING MISTAKE."
Though argument you got there lmao
most of that 'hundreds of billions' isn't going to go towards the tech or infrastructure, it's gonna go to people. a very small number of specific individuals.
correct, US taxpayer is being fleeced so some parasites can live their best lives.
Incorrect. They can already do that without more money.
But then none of them will get to claim that he’s the first trillionaire.
correct.
hell, i could live my 'best' life off of musk's 'sofa cushion' money:
$2.5m is more than enough for me to live on just using investment proceeds--in perpetuity.
$2.5m to him (with ~ $436b) is the equivalent of fifty-seven cents to someone with $100k (in the bank, investments, retirement, home equity, etc). now, i don't have $100k, not even close. just using it as an example here. my equivalent would be more like half a cent.
It is beautiful how the US is never short on cash for state aid to enrich some owners.
But god forbid plebs ask for a good train, that's communism!
Socialism for giant corporations: 😎🦅🇺🇸
Socialism for common people: 😡🚫🤷♂️
Explain how good trains will help our precious CEOs?
Unless you mean a private train line paid with government funds. Now we're talking!
Anyone who thinks this was about getting AI working was the idiot from the start, there still isn’t even a real use-case for it. This was always about funneling huge amounts of money from the government budget to a bunch of rich assholes. The outcome doesn’t matter at all here.
there still isn’t even a real use-case for it
There are several real use cases for it, it's just that they're worth like ten bucks a month to me all together and OpenAI is running at a loss while charging... *checks notes* 200 dollars per month for their top tier model?
Exactly. Just look at Intel and the CHIPS Act.
Guys listen up, every deepseek model comes with a dedicated chinese spy, who will log all your data and send it back to CCP who will use it to plot the destruction of the western civilization.
Instead we should use Freedom© models from OpenAI (side note if deepseek is so "open" how come they don't have open in their name huh?) even if OpenAI don't show their reasoning, they only do this cuz they want to protect us and they stand for our values.
They cost 100x more only because they are fighting for our Freedom and Freedom doesn't come cheap, Freedom doesn't have a price, Freedom requires our sacrifice.

there's no need, western civilization is collapsing by itself
use it to plot the destruction of the western civilization
Peaks around at the state of Western Civilization
Boots up another copy of DeepSeek
The US is getting owned by China left and right, but sure lets focus on abusing minorities, women, LGBTQ+, and the poor instead of investing on actually making America great. Whatever.
Maybe they try to imitate china on those topics?
"Necessity is the mother of invention."
What you're likely seeing here is innovation similar to the early tech sector. The hardware limitation (no Nvidia chips) means different (usually more complex) solutions are needed.
These solutions usually require a deep understanding of a specific area of mathematics, and expertise in coding. The person making it normally has to be heavily invested, since it still eats a lot of hours.
I often joke, the mathematician who finds a faster algorithm for matrix operations is sitting on a billion dollar idea.
Yeah obviously we've completely lost the plot a long time ago. Nobody even remembers when tech was bands of ragtag nerds making something out of nothing. Now they are the rich whose only purpose to is extract more wealth. Tech what? Who even knows anymore.
That includes the average tech workers. If that angers you then you're lost too.
Nobody has noticed that there's more bragging about compensation than accomplishments. It used to be the other way around. Nerds eagerly showing off to anyone who will listen about whatever thing they cooked up. It's been this way for the past long time long before this LLM AI era.
Yeah, give me a /technology/ sub that speaks about technology (have you heard about the esp-8266? Did you know a A4988 can steer a NEMA from a Raspberry pi? And even The 6 gen SSD can move X GB/s, what is the fastest quad core under 100$?) and not about funding and drama.
Or am I out of touch with reality :-) ?
Again, this is all fucking stupid. China is giving this shit away for free to absolutely own the US for spending money on stupid fucking things like this.
Its good for the consumer. If companies like deepseek weren't just tossing them out there for anyone to use, Microsoft and Google would currently have a monopoly and it would all be subscription type services.
It also greatly reduces whatever chance the copyright shills have of legislating against it.
Late stage capitalism has now created mega corporations that no longer profit off their innovation and quality, but merely off manipulation and exploitation of their mind-boggling amounts of capital. They now must crush all competition using authoritarian means because competition is now their biggest weakness.
Capitalism is well and truely dead, and corporations and conservatives are the ones who killed it. They want to remove the ladder of success that got them there.
Capitalism has never been healthier. This IS Capitalism, not an anomaly.
We're Fiscally RESPOSIBLE!
well I mean the USA's president is a scammer so I am not surprised he is involved in stuff where scammers are abundant nowadays like crypto and AI
The Chinese model has chain of thought that u can see. The model when asked to talk about chinas atrocities will go through a chain of though process outlining all the atrocities then conclude its not allowed to tell u. Cool technology tho I'm just waiting for a dolphin fine tuning.
Yeah all the info is there and something switches it over to the generic response.
So fucked.
There's also notable vitality in FOSS big data tools from China (Apache Doris, Kylin, Kyuubi etc.) that reminds of Hadoop in the USA 15 years ago while the USA data engineering now mostly turned to closed source cloud solutions.
China has a huge advantage in AI models because of how lax they are on intellectual property rights. US companies are fighting over API licensing costs, while china is just going to scrape everything and use it for free.
The US has a lead now, but I don't think they can maintain it without giving up on ethical training. Then again it may not matter if the US models are ethical if everyone will eventually just uses the superior unethically trained chinese models instead.

lolwat
did corporate provide you with these talking points?
