News
Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

The reasoning is that people will stop buying their most expensive hardware offerings. This doesn’t make much sense either. Someone will come up with something clever to do with all that new compute, and then the demand for expensive hardware will be back again.
I understand why this is terrible news for OpenAI. Their entire competitive edge was that they’ve invested billions to build their GPT models. Anyone who wants to get to their levels must do the same investments.
If what’s being said about DeepSeek is true, then their entire competitive edge has just vanished overnight. Billion dollar investment: gone. It’s going to be hard for them to make the return they hoped to make from their investment.
Nvidia hasn’t lost their competitive edge. They’re still making the best hardware for AI computing. The demand for AI compute is likely going to increase.
It’s also embarrassing for OpenAI. How could they have missed this?
Agreed, I would think that hardware might still be turned to other uses like protein folding, and mining, possibly?
Personally, I think the "market" is usually filled with lots of hysterics pushing it both up and down and this is possibly just another example. I picture these stock guys as a precursor to all the dipshit Youtube "techfluencer" types (sidebar: sigh, what the hell has happened to my industry? Many of these people seem like they are one step away from video feeds moms unboxing useless cheap junk, but instead, it's with the latest programming language or frontend Javascript framework. Apparently these types have lots of clueless followers thinking this is how to guide their careers in IT? WTAF. ) always with the hot takes and the clickbait thumbnails. Oh, and now these two groups work hand-in-glove - you can find stockbro YT hot takes all over the place reacting to DeepSeek, too. :)
