Now. It’s amazing to me that everyone is like fuck OpenAI deepseek is the savior, when OpenAI’s papers and code jump started an AI revolution just a few years ago. Let’s wait the same number of years and see what deepseek does.

I thought the papers that jump started the revolution came from Google?
Indeed. And the papers were about doing better translation of char sequences, essentially the tech emerged as linguistics improvement for language. Then someone realised the parrot learns enough ZIP and JPEG alongside and can spit back hazy memories of it all.

the one still super useful thing OpenAI ever released must’ve been Whisper. But they could’ve been much more open for sure.

Hinton. And if you'd ask himself probably Schmidthuber.
