Why DeepSeek Might Not Be as Revolutionary as You Think

Are you one of those freaking out about Deep seq? Should you use it? Don't use it. It's from China. Let's slow down. Are these claims real? I'll give you a couple of red flags to talk through about Deep Seq. So number one, where's the proof? Deepseek says that they train their model using just 2,000 Nvidia H100 GPUs, the downgraded chips allowed in China. They're way fewer than what OpenAI and Google use, but without any external verification. So can we trust it? Red flag number two, it's open source, but at what cost? Deepsea released this openly, which is great for research. Some believe they use data AI models, potentially violating some restrictions. And number three, privacy. Their privacy policy states that they collect user data, including keystrokes or IP address which could be accessible by different governments. So the verdict? It's exciting, but it's not a magic bullet until we get independent tests. Take their claims with a grain of salt. Before you crown it as the next AI king, consider the trade offs.
