Can I ask why this article is title like Deepseek is a virus? Feels like this could've been "new flu variant". I don't know if this is intentional or not.

- arantius 1y agoThis is an appropriate usage of the word "variant", and applies to anything that can have several varieties.
- xracy 1y agoWhile I agree the word could be appropriate, I'm asking a meta question about how it is typically used, and whether or not we're conveying something unintentional by using it in this context as well. I don't consider "variants" a good thing because I lived through a few years of COVID.
