DeepSeek was open about this from the very beginning. The $6 million figure was about comparing apples with apples. Just look at page 5 in the original paper. The SemiAnalysis report compares apples with oranges to save the ass of OpenAI.
Yeah. There's something with their website and presentation that feels.. Well, it didn't turn off my alarm. I'm also too tired to dive deeper and find out by myself.
The keyboard seems really good though. Just wish the app would ask for mic permissions when it's actually needed.
This license, plus that the app require microphone access, plus all the AI features, make my BS alarm go bzzz.
Unregulated capitalism in a nutshell.
It usually is. Its a high risk gamble that can lead to basically anyghing. And probably that anything will be bad for the poor. Reformism and organized labor is a safer path towards increased equality. But maybe that ship has sailed for the US...
I used to be pro UBI. Now I'm not so sure. The only resilient tool for increased equality is an organized work force that has real economic power. Workers on UBI has no real power and the UBI can be taken away anytime by those in power.
And if AI takes all jobs.. Well, lets cross that bridge when we get there. Maybe we simply have to hope for that crypto bro UBI solution. Qualia will be our last currency.
For the US, my guess is: within the next 4 years. Inflation will be insane. Lets hope blue collar can organize and leverage the situation.

The people saying that Intel should get rid of their fab businesses, really don't know what they're talking about. The manufacturing is Intels most important business by far. Mid and long term. (But maybe not profitable short term.)
It is so important that it would make sense for the US to nationalize it. And frankly, chip manufacturing is the kind of business or service that probably should be owned and run by the state. Just like conventional nuclear and advanced military industry.
The full size model requires over 1200 GB of VRAM.
Apparently many things were just introduced. Including Pro subscription and a new app. https://www.testingcatalog.com/mistral-ai-rolls-out-mobile-apps-revamped-le-chat-and-set-to-announce-major-update-today/
FYI: This is not marketing, I just got confused because I use Le Chat every day and suddenly everything felt different.
