Intro to DeepSeek's open-source week and why it's a big deal

Interesting read. Great to see ppl actually delivering with these open-source releases that really are what openAI should have done…

Love when someone that actually knows their stuff does a deep breakdown like this. Super useful

I wonder though if all it matters is the last punchline. The profit margin vs competitors. If llms truly get commoditized and do not benefit from economy of scale(like infra/aws) because they would be run in house, then would all companies that use them be in a nash equilibrium? Like everyone has access to the same stuff, same reasoning, same benefits. The only people who will really win in enterprise are consultants that find the best way to leverage and implement agents, not the model makers themselves. And of course data will still be king

I wonder if this openness will inspire other teams to share more of their infra. Imagine how quickly the field could move if more labs took this approach!

Great stride ahead for OS, curious to see how inference providers respond

So system design is still relevant and it's not all ML and math?

Cracked team vs export controlls, who will win?
