The U.S. just pledged hundreds of billions to protect its AI leadership. A Chinese startup with a ‘joke of a budget‘ may have already undercut those hopes
“Earlier this week, DeepSeek unveiled its R1 model, which, the startup claims, meets, if not exceeds, performance from OpenAI’s o1 model released last year. (o1 is designed to tackle reasoning and math problems.)” — Oh, so China built their for math and we built ours for garbage. Interesting approach.
