That's right I'm a huge open source shill.
None of this has anything to do with the model being open source or not, plenty of other people have already disputed that claim.
It's a model that outperforms the other ones in a bunch of areas with a smaller footprint and which was trained for less than a twentieth of the price, and then it was released as open source.
If it were European or US made nobody would deem it suspicious if somebody talked about it all month, but it's a Chinese breakthrough and god forbid you talk about it for three days
It has everything to do with the tech being open. You can dispute it all you like, but the fact is that all the code and research behind it is open. Anybody could build a new model from scratch using open data if they wanted to. That's what matters.
I'm commenting on the odd nature of the post and your behavior in the comments, pointing out that it comes across as more a shallow advertisement than a sincere endorsement, that is all. I don't know enough about DeepSeek to discuss it meaningfully, nor do I have enough evidence to decide upon its open source status.
I don't really care what you think bud. Stay in your lane.
You might have a far more positive interaction with the community if you learned to listen first before jumping on the defensive
Pretty much all my interactions with the community here have been positive, aside from a few toxic trolls such as yourself. Maybe take your own advice there champ.
I'm no troll, I'm only trying to give you some helpful advice. It's your choice not to pay me any attention
The fact that you don't even realize you're a troll makes it even more hilarious.
You keep telling yourself that I'm just an evil troll then, whatever floats your boat
Anybody who reads your comments can make up their own mind.
That is indeed a thing they can do, lol
