Im glad DeepSeek open sourced their model. Even if the goal was to destabilize US companies,

back in my day this was called a "free market", now we have start ups from china doing it to the US private capital.

Even someone as far back as Adam Smith knew that businesses hate competition and will do anything they can to avoid it. The broligarchy was speed-running the construction of an oligopoly and lobbying the government to erect barriers to entry so they could take their sweet time milking us dry. Now I'm not sure about what the real backstory of DeepSeek might be, but it is still satisfying to see Altman get his ass handed to him.
