What's a deepseek? Sounds like a search engine?
Deepseek is a Chinese AI company that released Deepseek R1, a direct competitor to ChatGPT.
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.
