DeepSeek exposed its American counterparts for what they are: yet another grift.
To be fair, DeepSeek did make genuine improvements to the computational algorithm behind transformer models, making them way more efficient. It’s not like the American models were using lots of resources because they wanted to.
The fact that American AI was a grift was already evident well before DeepSeek came about. What DeepSeek really showed was that existing transformer models weren’t yet optimized.
