Unlike OpenAI, DeepSeek is the true open AI?

Funny how an American non-profit charges $200 per month for AI while a Chinese hedge fund gives it away for free.Maybe it is because of DeepSeek being some side project.

And also, what I really want to understand is Why is it a problem if Deekseek beats Open AI in the AI race?

Think about this too if the release of a single open source AI model is enough to crash the value of these companies, what does that say about the value they were offering?

try asking it questions about Tianammen Square - see what happens then decide whether you want to use it for other items.
