The release of DeepSeek's R1 model has sent shockwaves through Silicon Valley. Early reactions suggest it rivals OpenAI's O1 and Google's Gemini 2.0 in performance, but at a drastically lower cost, raising questions about future AI development and market dynamics. The model's accessibility and open-source nature add to its disruptive potential.
DeepSeek R1's performance is comparable to OpenAI's O1 and Google's Gemini 2.0.
DeepSeek claims significantly lower training costs compared to US labs.
R1 is accessible via API at a fraction of the cost of competitors.
The model's open-source nature and efficient design allow it to run on various consumer devices.
DeekSeek has released R1, their answer to OpenAI's O1, and it has Silicon Valley chattering and markets crashing. But just how big a deal is it? Big, argues NLW, even if the likely impact might be different than what Wall Street seems to think.
