Office space meme:
“If y’all could stop calling an LLM “open source” just because they published the weights… that would be great.”
Ok. How does that apply to DeepSeek?
Your anti-AI talking points are so embedded with anti-Big Tech arguments, that now you can’t pivot when it’s a publicly available, communist developed, energy efficient AI.
Actually no. As someone who prefers academic work, I very heavily prefer Deepseek to OpenAI. But neither are open. They have open weights and open source interpreters, but datasets need to be documented. If it’s not reproducible, it’s not open source. At least in my eyes. And without training data, or details on how to collect it, it isn’t reproducible.
You’re right. I don’t like big tech. I want to do research without being accused of trying to destroy the world again.
And how is Deepseek over-hyped? It’s an LLM. LLM’s cannot reason, but they’re very good at producing statistically likely language generation which can sound like its training data enough to gaslight, but not actually develop. They’re great tools, but the application is wrong. Multi domain systems that use expert systems with LLM front ends to provide easy to interpret results is a much better way to do things, and Deepseek may help people creating expert systems (whether AI or not) make better front ends. This is in fact huge. But it’s not the silver bullet tech bros and popsci mags think it is.
But also, you were talking about Nvidia in your comment I responded to, not Deepseek, so your rebuttal is non sequitur…
LoL. Love when bots can’t follow the conversation, and accidentally out themselves.
I guess this one’s not up-to-date on Nvidia’s stock plunge following the DeepSeek release. Ironically, maybe the bots will be able to work out conversation context like this soon.
Hm. I speak like a bot, do I? Maybe I am autistic after all.
I am aware, my boyfriend and I have already had this conversation, but I guess he’s not on Lemmy, so you can’t ask him.
Yes, DeepSeek caused a drop in the stock price, but you were saying that believing that LLM’s are over-hyped would lead to having insider knowledge and could give us an advantage in the stock market. Particularly with their already tanked stock. However, the stock market fluctuates based on hype, not value, and will do whatever the fuck it pleases, so the only way to have insider knowledge is by being on a board who controls the price or by managing to dump hype into the system. That is not something a lot of people have the power to do individually.
But since you think I’m a bot and I have no way to disprove that thanks to what the world is now, I bid you adieu. I hope you’re having a good one. And stop antagonizing people for talking differently, please.
Edit: I took a look at your recent comment history, and you do come off as trying to troll and be disingenuous. If you want to have a less inflammatory conversation, you can DM me, but I do recommend you tone it down. You’re not helping anyone with how you’re approaching this, buddy.
China is a state-capitalist, bourgeois society. They’re not a communist society.
Also: LLMs aren’t energy efficient.
