I’m curious. Essentially it sounds like deep seek just figured out how to be efficient. How to do more (or the same) with less. What if you combine this efficiency WITH the massive amounts of hardware? Does that get you anywhere? I.e. does the efficiency plus “lots of hardware” get you any breakthroughs?
Discussion
That’s what the big players like (Closed)OpenAI are going to bet on - adopt these efficiencies as they pop up and keep scaling, hoping that their capabilities will only be matched by similar scale as efficiency improvements run out.
