    Chinese release an open source AI called DeepSeek that runs on infrastructure a fraction of the price of all existing AI platforms despite their billions of investment.

    It's never going to work here, no company will want their data sent to China. It also refuses to answer any anti-China questions <laugh>

    Might teach it to call ER an old **** though, probably knows already tbh

    Nobody should trust AI. You don't know how it was trained and where the training data came (stolen) from.

    The Facebook and Cambridge Analytica scandal for example.

    AI is hugely useful in limited controlled instances as a tool as part of a software system.

    This global push for AI everywhere is frankly dangerous. Who controls the data?

    I always preferred Ralgex for those niggling soccerball strains and injuries.

    If some woke twat programmed the AI to be stacked full of diversity, inclusivity and equity you get **** like negro Vikings when asking the bot to produce a picture of a Chieftain. Or you could watch Netflix where they do the same thing.

    I was reading an article this morning where somebody downloaded the ‘free’ version of DeepSeek and asked it to nominate three S&P 500 shares to buy for growth.

    The irony was that it responded with Nvidia, Microsoft and Apple – the three largest stocks in the world by market capitalisation. Of course what DeepSeek did not know was that its own release had seen Nvidia’s share price plummet by 17 per cent, recording the biggest ever single day loss by any stock in history.

    When they asked ChatGPT (produced by Open AI/Microsoft) for three recommendations it gave Nvidia and Microsoft but its third choice was Visa.

    How long until the AI bubble bursts? Almost every equity involved in this technology is massively overbought and has a price to earnings ratio that means investors will not see a return on their capital in their lifetime. Punters would be better off gambling on The Donald’s cryptocurrency Ponzi scheme.

    Only a matter of time before The Donald bans DeepSeek on National Security grounds as it is Chinese.

    AI will be useful if used correctly.

    However , introducing it at speed , as many companies are doing just now, is madness.

    It should be used to ‘compliment’ existing functions, processes etc , not as a full replacement. . Introduce automation etc .

    I’m on a project just now using large langue models to analyse large archives of documents .

    Once the outputs of this are available , we are switching to smaller language models to analyse further and create packages of documents , response templates, data tables, useable text layers etc

    That’s ‘paper’ data . People letting it loose on their CRMs / ERPs / Databases are in for a major GDPR **** show down the line .

    deepseek was trained on data generated by gpt, so theyre effectively the same thing, only difference is one is biased to israel and one is biased to china

    the reason there is hype for deepseek is they found a shortcut which enabled them to train the model for a fraction of the costs for openAI

    in reality china have invested almost a trillion in AI over the last 10 years and are probably spending a fortune to serve this model for free right now, their shortcut can also easily be copied by everyone else now so its not a long term advantage

    the clever thing they did was realise that they didnt need all the data because its already contained in the GPT model so you can just prompt it to give you it all piece by piece

    I would still bet on the american companies, the markets have overreacted big time to a literal made in china knockoff that will always be a slightly worse version of gpt
