Altman didn’t really make his money from tech. He’s basically a magic bean seller. He’ll be fine no matter what happens to AI. He’ll find a new grift and new suckers (famously one born every minute after all)

I'm sure he will, but at least this grift has run its course.

What's a deepseek? Sounds like a search engine?

[–] [email protected] 30 points 1 month ago (6 children)

Deepseek is a Chinese AI company that released Deepseek R1, a direct competitor to ChatGPT.

You forgot to mention that it's open source.

Nice! What are they competing for? I'm new to this AI business thing.

So far, they are training models extremely efficiently while having US gatekeeping their GPUs and doing everything they can to slow their progress. Any innovation in having efficient models to operate and train is great for accessibility of the technology and to reduce the environment impacts of this (so far) very wasteful tech.

Market share, in a speculated market to be in the future.

Come on, OP, Altman is still a billionaire. If he got out of the game right now, with OpenAi still unprofitable, he'd still have enough wealth for a dozen generations.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 month ago (1 children)

He's a billionaire based on the valuation of OpenAI, if the company fizzles so does his wealth.

I tried DeepSeek, and immediately fell in love.. My only nitpick is that images have to have text on them, otherwise it complains, but for the price of free, I'm basically just asking for too much. Contemporaries be damned.

The bubble must be repaired. Pump more cash in!
