Trooper, 2 hours agoIt's not about copywrite, but debunking whether DeepSe... moreAnd you miss the point. What DeepSeek did in terms of "piggybacking" or distillation is common practice for all AI companies. It's the industry norm, in fact the work from one of the godfathers of AI that earned him the Nobel is about the need to use distillation to improve LLMs: https://arxiv.org/pdf/1503.02531.

What's unique about DeepSeek is the algorithms used to train this AI is much more efficient. Meaning if you were to train DeepSeek and ChatGPT using the same resources, it'd be cheaper and quicker to train DeepSeek thus reducing DeepSeek's development cost.

    Anonymous, 5 hours agoAs if these western companies didn't do the same thing... moreIt's not about copywrite, but debunking whether DeepSeek is/was actually cheaper to develop than the preceding AI chatbot technologies, or if they are just piggybacking using existing freely available code. If piggybacking on others code is in fact the case, then the development costs of of those will have to be factored in to the total cost of DeepSeek, thus making DeepSeek's development actually more expensive...

          Anonymous, 9 hours agoNo more billions for them after cheapskate China men expose... moreI guess we'll find out just how cheap this new Chinese model really is, once the investigations on whether any freely available code released by existing chatbot creators was used to create DeepSeek, or if it is indeed all their original code.

Asking soo much money for as much as BILLIONS of dollars from investors/govt. Then chinese guys comes along and says their stuff operates on the cheap. Pathetic.

                Having my data tossed around the internet (and for a subscription fee) to do something as basic as what the current models are most used for - lolno.
