The drama around DeepSeek builds on a false premise: Large language designs are the Holy Grail. This ... [+] misdirected belief has actually driven much of the AI financial investment frenzy.

The story about DeepSeek has interfered with the prevailing AI narrative, impacted the markets and spurred a media storm: A large language model from China takes on the leading LLMs from the U.S. - and it does so without needing nearly the costly computational financial investment. Maybe the U.S. doesn't have the technological lead we thought. Maybe loads of GPUs aren't needed for AI's unique sauce.

But the increased drama of this story rests on an incorrect premise: LLMs are the Holy Grail. Here's why the stakes aren't almost as high as they're constructed out to be and the AI investment frenzy has actually been misdirected.

Amazement At Large Language Models

Don't get me incorrect - LLMs represent extraordinary progress. I have actually been in device knowing considering that 1992 - the very first six of those years operating in natural language processing research study - and I never thought I 'd see anything like LLMs during my life time.
