This has been making the rounds.

Jokes aside ….. he’s not wrong. The guys who built DeepSeek did it as a side project for their quant fund.

Nvidia and all those associated to the closed source OpenAI are looking to have a very rough week ahead in the markets.

Also, no relation with “goodalexander”

It’s crazy what they accomplished…

Spent much of the weekend going down the DeepSeek rabbit hole and it is crazy what they were able to do.

And open sourced too.

👀 What should search for to read understand what this is about?

it's not a side project, their quant fund can't operate, it's the thing they do.

impressive anyway.

what does it do to the half trillion Stargate announcement

doge can now trim some fat there easy

The fact that all of this came out the very week StarGate was announced suggests to me there was some China coordination underlying the DeepSeek R1 release.

Or maybe I’m just paranoid.

The whole Stargate idea is a stupid waste of government (ie people's) money. "Creating jobs" by stealing money from people is taking away their agency and giving it to corporations. It just shows the government is the violent/coercive arm of the corporate/banking world.

Another nail in the coffin of “sanctions are effective”.

Wtf is Deepseek
