Why was DeepSeek so cheap to make?
My summary: raw data not labeled data or human aligned, curated data collections given privilege (not boil the ocean), train against other-people’s-models, “mini-models” that are trained by the big model = cheaper to train, cheaper to inference. They refine/scaffold off

At Davos last week, the only person to say “DeepSeek” was the Chinese professor from Tsinghua
But everyone else was well aware: Gary Marcus, Demis, Tegmark, OpenAI, Amadei, plus the reporters (WSJ, Bloomberg). Why is it news THIS week? The stuff was released Dec 26.
