This article is amazing. It explains not just why DeepSeek is so successful, but really indicates that innovators elsewhere will be too: that extensive opportunities exist for improving transformers. Yet few companies do (not just China, but everywhere): incredible amounts are spent just replicating someone else's work with a fear of trying anything substantially different.

great article, thank you

That was a really good article. I dig the CEO's attitude, i agree with everything he says and I am an American. From a Chinese perspective he must be talking an alien language so I salute him with trying to push past the bounds of acceptable hum drum. If the rest of China takes on this attitude the west will have serious competition.
