Isn't the entire fucking point of AI to distill what others have created? Sounds like they did it better than any of your companies, David. [embedded post]

What I've read so far, the “evidence” is that they can't figure out how else DeepSeek could've done it, which, hrm. — Also, *if* someone stole OpenAI's data, call the police, using copyrighted material without paying its creators is a crime, good point. — techcrunch.com/2025/…

Oh, wow. Apparently using other peoples' IP to train an AI model is theft now, is it? Weird how that changed so very quickly 🤔 — techcrunch.com/2025/01/28/d...

What does DeepSeek R1 & v3 mean for LLM data? Contrary to some lazy takes I've seen, DeepSeek R1 was trained on a shit ton of human-generated data - in fact, the DeepSeek models are setting records for the disclosed amount of post-training data for open-source models...

There's a lot of misconception that China “just cloned” the outputs of openai. This is far from true and reflects incomplete understanding of how these models are trained in the first place. DeepSeek R1 has figured out RL finetuning...
