Nvidia stocks are getting back to their places. It's funny we don't know that Deepseek's parent hedge fund company had spent over $500M on gpus.
This is to say don't follow the hype, just try deepseek but don't come here and say oh they are beating OpenAI and they'll kill them or they'll crash Nvidia we're doomed etc.
Once again this whole thing reasoning with RL or at least was successfully done by OpenAI and now people are trying to catch up with what openai has done, the bar is always OpenAI, mad respect for them, but I'm not fan of their ultimate goal and path to what they call "AGI"

"pioneer in AI?"
Can someone tell me anything they have done so far? I'm unfamiliar with what they do
"We push the boundaries of artificial intelligence", come on, even the entire continent of Africa together isn't pushing at all.
Honestly, it's depressing how we are far behind and the things we do aren't to move forward, usually.

I first saw Leyu as a big deal, but now it seems more profit-driven than a true contribution to research and open sourceβwhich is completely fine and great for them. But Shegaβs news calls it an "open source" datasetπ€, yet access requires a request, and I havenβt received it after days. Can this really be called an open-source movement?
Their website emphasizes crowdsourcing and incentives, with no clear mention of open-sourcing. So why label it that way in the news?
I still hope they set an example in truly open-sourcing datasetsπ₯.
