Part 2/7:
Deep Seek’s recent announcement is remarkable not just because of the AI model's performance but primarily due to its cost efficiency. By adopting innovative engineering and reverse engineering existing models, the Chinese firm has managed to produce an AI that performs similarly to what US companies like OpenAI have developed, but at a fraction of the cost. This achievement marks a significant architectural milestone, showcasing that high-performance AI can be achieved more economically—potentially democratizing access and sparking a new wave of AI innovation.
