DeepSeek showed that the Western “just throw more data at it” nonsense is a failed strategy, and certainly China is going to continue developing this technology further. Their approach is much smarter, they build different models for different problems instead of trying to build a general purpose model that can do everything at once. Then DeepSeek can switch between different models to solve different problems, instead of trying to make every problem conform to their one general purpose model.
Let me clarify - I don’t think any advancement of this technology is going to come out of Silicon Valley. They’re all trying to build the Homer Car.
