This isn't about the China now. This is about preventing people from providing/using DeepSeek. Basically, this is about ensuring DeepSeek only has a market in China or in other China friendly countries.

Yeah I took a look at some of them and they are okay. I may need to switch to them as DeepSeek doesn't look like they can keep up with demand.

I suspect the goal is to make it not viable for any company to host the model and provide API services and create a choke point with deepseek.com This is actually quite serious in my opinion, as running the 671B model is not trivial and I w

Who knows with the Trump administration and their stacked Supreme court. I'm guessing what is going to be debated is not so much the data itself, but the means of obtaining the data. Basically there was breach of contract somewhere.

I literally cannot see how OpenAI and Anthropic can justify their valuation given DeepSeek. In business, if you can provide twice the value at half the price, you will destroy the incumbent. Right now, DeepSeek is destroying on price and pr

Agreed. I am no fan of the CCP but I have no issue with using DeepSeek since I only need to use it for coding which it does quite well. I still believe Sonnet is better. DeepSeek also struggles when the context window gets big. This might
