For anyone not in the now, about a week ago a small Chinese startup released some fully open source AI models that are just as good as ChatGPT's high end stuff, completely FOSS, and able to run on lower end hardware, not needing hundreds of high end GPUs for the big cahuna. They also did it for an astonishingly low price, or...so I'm told, at least.
So, yeah, AI bubble might have popped. And there's a decent chance that the US government is going to try and protect it's private business interests.
I'd highly recommend everyone interested in the FOSS movement to archive Deepseek models as fast as possible. Especially the 671B parameter model, which is about 400GBs. That way, even if the US bans the company, there will still be copies and forks going around, and AI will no longer be a trade secret.
Edit: adding links to get you guys started. But I'm sure there's more.
