Chrome OS is a surveillance tool for Google and authorities, and should be illegal to give to minors. It’s actually illegal in EU, except for some reason EU is giving it a pass.

DeepSeek being an LLM is far from open source and especially not „truly“ open. The very article you linked basically says as much but wraps it in pretty words. Talking about ignorance.

But I must admit I am annoyed by you contradicting me, but it’s even worse that you were right. I find that generally offensive. So I’ll go sulk in corner for a few minutes. 😜 😋 🤣

All the articles saying that are lying, probably unknowingly just as I believed the claim, they probably did too, and I’m NOT being sarcastic! I have no idea why publishing these “weights” is considered open source, it has nothing to do with Open Source as defined by OSI, which I believe has a historical right to the term. I apologize.

With the December 2024 launch of DeepSeek’s free-for-all V3 large language model (LLM) and the January 2025 release of DeepSeek’s R1 (the AI reasoning model that rivals the capabilities of OpenAI’s O1), the open-source movement started by Chinese firms has sent shockwaves through Silicon Valley and Wall Street. I’ve read similar claims in other articles, I have no idea why they would call it open source if it’s not?

Oracle doesn’t need a bailout, they are loaded, and can afford this loss. But of course an investment not being as profitable as they promised means the stock goes down. It’s not like the company is anywhere near being in trouble.

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman declared a “code red” last week as the upstart faces greater rivalry from Google, threatening its ability to monetize its AI products and meet its ambitious revenue targets. Interesting that even Sam Altman is worried now! AFAIK there are also problems that Chinese companies have their own tool chain, and are releasing high level truly open source solutions for AI. Seems to me a problem could be that it is hard to make AI tie in, like is popular with much software and cloud services. But with AI you can use whatever tool is best value, and switch to the competition whenever you want.

I 100% agree, but some would consider that a matter of ideology. The other point about dependency on USA when they are acting with hostility is more pragmatic. 99% of people don’t understand all the reason why open source is better for public services, except if we can say it’s cheaper. That’s the one point they understand, and the one point Microsoft has been attacking most with their propaganda against open source.
