Bask in some schadenfreude today:
Upstart Chinese company DeepSeek used hardware that wasn't the best & synthetic training methods to reveal that expensive Western Ai is for chumps.
Oh, & they did it at less than 1/50th the cost.
The secret: When you're NOT running a scam, you just might need to be efficient.

"This isn't about China — it's so much fucking easier if we let it be about China — it's about how the American tech industry is incurious, lazy, entitled, directionless and irresponsible. OpenAi and Anthropic are the antithesis of Silicon Valley."

@swasserstrom Zitron appears on this week’s Trash Future podcast, where he rants at some length about this. He’s always good.
