What is the estimated cost these days to train something like this to conclusion?
- lambda 4mo agoDeepSeek themselves claimed that R1 cost $294k to train. Folks are skeptical of how low that is, however. https://www.techspot.com/news/109542-rare-disclosure-deepseek-claims-r1-model-training-cost.html https://www.techspot.com/news/109542-rare-disclosure-deepsee... Olmo 3 claims that if they paid market rates for their training, it would have cost $2.75m. It was trained by a non-profit and probably had some of the compute donated, hence why they have to estimate. https://arxiv.org/pdf/2512.13961 https://arxiv.org/pdf/2512.13961 So, probably somewhere between hundreds of thousands and tens of millions.
