The importance of the DeepSeek breakthrough is not in answering Chinese news-related question accurately, it is in the fact that it can answer any question at 1/30th of the cost of comparable AI models.

The inaccuracy can be corrected eventually by Machine Learning. It’s still a formidable competitor.

OK, I have to ask, what is a chatbot?

The chatbot repeated false claims 30% of the time and gave vague or not useful answers 53% of the time

So, still a fair bit better than a typical MSM article.

Is DeepSeek related to SeekAndFind?

Apologies - I cannot resist juvenile puns.

On a more serious note...

I cannot help but wonder if DeepSeek executives held short positions in Nvidia stock before they made their Earth Quake announcements on Tuesday.

Lazy way to avoid doing your own search with a search engine. I have been playing with computers since the very late 80’s and as time has gone on information (true and accurate) has become more and more difficult to obtain via the web. It has become a victim of political and monetary traps. Think back to calculators’ entrance and then use in schools...a lot of kids can’t even do simple math equations in their heads....this is just another nail in the coffin allowing people to rely on what WE KNOW can be easily manipulated and yet people will swear by the outcome of a program that will always be fallible.

“NewsGuard"?
Fake news “NewsGuard"?
Didn't President Trump just cut off funding for NewsGuard for far left bias?

A 17% accuracy rate is artificial stupidity, not artificial intelligence.

Are they saying the chinese bot is not #1 best quality okey-dokey? I’m shocked. I heard the creator and the bot was quoted at saying- “Me so sorry!”

News guard doesn’t exactly have a stellar record.

DeepSeek's claims regarding development and training costs suggest a significant competitive edge, but these claims lack independent verification. And given that we're talking about China—a country with strong incentives to exaggerate such achievements—skepticism is warranted.

While NewsGuard’s left-wing bias is often a concern, it wouldn't necessarily affect this fact-checking evaluation—unless, of course, NewsGuard harbors a soft spot for the CCP, which would ironically underscore the audit's significance rather than undermine it.

On the surface, it looks like NewsGuard's evaluation might be identifying some serious weaknesses for DeepSeek.

Is it actually AI or is it just 10,000 Chinese college students Googling stuff for you? Will some of the responses be “Help! I’m trapped in a Shanghai cube farm!”
