You're wrong on deepseek. It's not distilled (actual r1 model is based off v3).

So, so many misinformed takes in this thread (not just you...)
For 2 decades we were told how Apple will have to cut their margins due to competition and so on.

Today, it's simple. Apple has 25% unit share in smartphone markets and 75% profit share. Apple makes 3x the profit of ALL OTHER smartphone vendors combined.

And this is exactly where Nvidia's goal is. The AI compute market will grow, Nvidia will lose unit market share but Nvidia will retain their profit market share. Simple as that.

And by the way, Nvidia is way ahead in SW compared to alternatives. Most here have the DIY glasses on. But enterprises and businesses have different lenses. For those not being Tech they need secure and working solution with enterprise grades. Nvidia is among the few to offer this with Enterprise AI solutions (NeMo, NIMs, etc.). Nvidia's SW moat isn't CUDA, CUDA is an API for performance and stability. Nvidia's SW moat is in the frameworks for applications for many differnt industries and of course ALL Nvidia SW will require Nvidia HW.

A company using Nvidia enterprise SW solutions and consultancy will never use anything except Nvidia HW. Nvidia has a program with >10k AI startups being supported with free consulting and HW support. Nvidia is basically grooming their next generation customers by themselves.

You have no idea, many think Nvidia is only selling some chips and that's where they are wrong. Nvidia is a brand, an ecosystem and they will continue to grow from there. See gaming, much more standards and commodity in SW than AI SW. There is no CUDA, you can swap a Nvidia card with AMD card within a minute. So let me know, how come for 2 decades that Nvidia has continously 80-95% market share?
And TPU, and normal GPUs. They like to have diversity in their stack.

I think that, because it's an international body of water, there IS no "official" name.
It's not a CISCO moment, more like a "Wavelength-division multiplexing" [1] moment of 2000 where the fiber optic craze was over capacity and crashed, causing a lot of "Dark Fibre" [2] left around. Deepseek found a way to squeeze more out of the same hardware, heck a key point is how to do more with the bandwidth bottleneck also with BI-DIRECTIONAL MULTIPLEXING [3] :)

Most of the biggest Nvidia clients are valued on speculation of future revenue from their closed models (secret sauce). Deepseek is fully open source so those revenue expectations crashed and investors are having second thoughts on throwing more money at companies like OpenAI. And this hits the expected sales growth of Nvidia for the next few years.

Dark fibre eventually was used but it took many years. And it was bought for cheap by companies like Google and CloudFlare.

It works flawlessly for me on a really old version of foss browser for android. Very impressive compatibility. Most browser games posted here on hn do not work on it, and many websites fail as well.
CUDA in this case is the ecosystem, not the programming language.
Because LLMs are based on the abstract ideas of neural nets from brains. Say what you wish, but some problems were completely unsolvable before we adopted this paradigm. On some level, we must've gotten some ideas close to the right ballpark.

investment is literally future labor expectations. and a risk.

in case of crisis the gov routinely starts bailouts and save the financial markets with interest rate operations or open market operations. those operations have deep re-distributive implications. don't think they are free.
It's not separate, but they don't necessarily have to use them like that. They merely can.

Ask HN: Where can I use DeepSeek from an alternative provider?
Hi all,

I'd like to use DeepSeek-R1, but the official provider at https://chat.deepseek.com are having issues to accept new accounts. Also, for my own reasons I'm interested in alternatives.

Ideally, I'd like to self-host a chat-interface similar to the UI that both OpenAI and DeepSeek provide, but I'd expect a third-party solution to quite likely be more tailored to my needs. (I'm actually not very impressed with the official UI:s that I've seen.)

I realize that this is probably a quite basic question to someone in the know, but I haven't found a good answer.

Thank you

The last time I was really excited by tech was in the 90s, when game graphics improved spectacularly over a period of a few years, from Wolfenstein in 1992 to Half-Life in 1998.

Along the way people invented the 3D GPU: https://fabiensanglard.net/3dfx_sst1/

But AI? To me, AI means the replacement of the human internet with doppelgangers eroding the possibility of human connection.
Very glad to hear the Pebble dream lives on! I only switched away from my Pebble Time two years ago when I started to need heart rate monitoring for health reasons. The Pixel Watch is good, but in many ways I still consider the Time the optimal smartwatch design in many departments!

The UX especially is something l look back fondly on, especially the timeline interface was such a natural way to use a timepiece for me.
Like many Trump quotes, this isn’t an “ink blot” test:

> I don’t blame (Dick Cheney) for sticking with his daughter, but his daughter is a very dumb individual, very dumb. She is a radical war hawk. Let's put her with a rifle standing there with nine barrels shooting at her, OK? Let's see how she feels about it. You know, when the guns are trained on her face.

She has a rifle, and there are nine other guns pointed at her. When are people facing a firing squad given their own weapon? The quote is literally a textbook “what if the war hawk’s shoe were on the other foot” trope.

Can't this kind of repetition be dealt with at the ~~decoder~~ (edit: sampler) level, like for any models? (see DRY ~~decoder~~ sampler for instance: https://github.com/oobabooga/text-generation-webui/pull/5677)
I am more optimistic. I always suggest automatically dropping x% of ones income into an index fund. At the least it will hedge against the very real chance governments will not be able to deliver on their promises.
I think there’s a real chance of changes in soft-power dynamics given recent events. When allies feel their partner and neighbour is behaving solely in its own interests, it changes trust relationships.

Trump, tech, US-first focus with less interest in collaboration. TikTok. Ukraine and discussions around defence budgets. Reducing focus on EV’s. Tariffs. Iceland. Gulf of America.

Immediate choices might be fear-based but it’s smart to look for other partners as trust erodes.

An extreme side effect might be countries who felt safe under the US arms umbrella, needing to arm themselves. Are we absolutely sure that’s what we want? Does that include nukes?
is llama405 a distilled model like DeepSeek or a trained frontier model? I honestly ask because I haven't researched but that's important to know before one compares.

"westerners" as if it was a monolithic block. I envy the simplicity of seeing life in such terms, China bad, US good, it must be very relaxing

You don't have any concerns with the US government, the nepotism, the corruption, the conflict of interests, the insider trading, the massive concentration of wealth and power in tech, the insane lobbyism, PRISM, &c.

It's surprising to find people who can so clearly see how China is bad but are completely oblivious to their own problems. It's not a football game, you don't have to chose a side and be a boot licker for eternity
Such great news. I still wear the OG Kickastarter Edition every day, years after the battery on my 2nd Pebble, the Time, died. I even still sync my old iPad to it to at least keep the time in sync.
I'm on team open source. To me the exciting thing was ollama downloading the 7B and running it on a 5yo cheap lonovo and getting a token rate similar to the first release of ChatGPT.

Running local on CPU opens so much possibilities for smart and privacy focused home devices that serve you.

In my test it hallucinated confidently but my interest is in simple second brain like rag. "Hey thingy, what is my schedule today?"

Need it to be a bit faster though as the thinking part adds a lot of latency.
> declining birthrates also hurt private markets, which rely on a growing workforce just as public pensions do.

Right, it's well known that the US' demographics are the foundation for its strong economy, not advancements in productivity and technology. /s

> if there is no growth also the financial markets won't grow.

Financial markets don't need to grow for your investments to pay off.
Investing into growth stocks is very popular now a days but value stocks (which might not grow at all but have profitable operations) and fixed income are perfectly good options too.

> if we dismiss public pensions as a ponzi scheme, then by the same logic, private plans—completely at the mercy of market swings

Some of them can be, the difference is that public pensions are a Ponzi scheme I'm legally forced to contribute to and have little say in.
Not so for private plans.

Is there evidence for the claim that the training was that much cheaper? Or is is 'apparent' by inspection of the verified ingestion architecture?

> index fund

What wealth will your index fund produce when nobody is working, and nobody has the money to buy stuff?

However you answer that question, I'll retort with - 'And exactly what will stop the government from taxing that wealth, to keep pensions working?'

> At the least it will hedge against the very real chance governments will not be able to deliver on their promises.

That's a fair point, there's the very real possibility that governments will refuse to take the steps necessary to deliver on those promises.

A good way to ensure that they won't shirk from that is continuing to elect the kind of government that will. Don't vote for people who seek to destroy public systems.
By and large they don't come from a software development background either though. It's all math and physics PhDs.

Ah, thanks. This isn't much of an upgrade from the `tools.go` convention, where the tools are underscore-imported. All it does is provide an indication in the `go.mod` file that some dependencies come from tools.

Plus, `go tool <tool-name>` is slower than `./bin/<tool-name>`. Not to mention, it doesn’t resolve the issue where tools might use a different version of a dependency than the app.

That's already happening, and is in fact even part of the R1 training pipeline. An intermediate small reasoning model churns out training data for RL a larger model, rinse and repeat. Deepseek also showed model distillation with synthetic reasoning data to work quite well.
> I can't think of any reason why a CEO would not want to be able to spot the people who a) are not assholes and b) gel really well with the company.

The CEO might want to be able to spot that, but in any company of some size they won't be able to spot it. Simply because they're the CEO, and there's far too many people working under them for them to keep that close track of every one. A team lead (of a not-too-big team) may be able to do that, but then they'd have to simultaneously be the CEO. i.e: It only works for companies the size of not-too-big teams.
So the focus is trying to find things where LLMs are bad instead of trying to find out where they are good and find applications for that?

That's basically like trying to embarass a IQ 180 student on emotional intelligence.

But I guess that's human nature to expect a machine to be 100x better than humanity on first try.

My understanding is with MoE (Mixture of Experts), you can and should shard it horizontally. The whole model is 600GB, but only 37GB is active during the evaluation of any single output token.

So you can load a different active subset of the MoE into each 89GB GPU, sharding it across something like 32 different GPUs (or can you get away with less? Wouldn't be surprised if they can infer on 8x H800 gpus). Some parameters are common, others are independent. Queries can be dynamically routed between GPUs, potentially bouncing between GPUs as much as once per output token, depending on which experts they need to activate.

Though, I suspect it's normal to stick on one MoE subset for several output tokens.

This has a secondary benefit that as long as the routing distribution is random, queries should be roughly load balanced across all GPUs.
This is simply not true, my investments make money from profitable business operating today, not "labor of the future".

Maybe you should stop reading Marxist economists.
I'm very happy, I will buy it if it has the same spirit has the previous ones. I loved my Pebble Time, I am not sure why I sold it. It was just what a smart watch was supposed to be, not a mini smart phone on your wrist.

I didn’t say China bad, I said Westerners typically find the levels of oppression and censorship present in China to be of concern. I actually gave zero of my own judgement on China at all.

If you really think the Good vs. Evil narrative is wrong, why would you immediately go towards unrelated generic issues the West has? A neutral party would be more likely to acknowledge the problems with both sides, not reflexively try to change the subject!

Then again you didn’t claim to be a neutral party, did you?
If you were old enough to have lived through that propoganda then you would have realised that other countries did not share the same opinion as the US.
The statute of limitations is 3 years for copyright infringement and 6 years for patents.

The plaintiff would have to show actual financial loss due to the infringement. In the case of the pebble assets, that seems exceedingly unlikely.

Generously assume for the sake of argument that the entire codebase is a straight up copy of Samsung and Apple’s IP. What damages have been caused by that IP sitting dormant on Google’s hard drives for the past six years?
The freedom is mostly not about the money. The 3D model Benchy was free, while being not free as people found out. Luckily the copyright owners treated it like people were free and free for now... but that could change.
Yes, their government should be able to honor their promises.
Today it's within the reach, I think. While effective context window is small for big files it should be possible to use RAGs to get relevant pieces in smaller window. That will be mostly data structures and functions' declarations. Only what's needed. Humans work the same way on non-trivial projects. Supervision should include strategic planing and subdivision to smaller tasks. Not sure, just my feeling, we are close to have capable models with big enough context windows. May be they are already good enough, just need proper orchestration.

Hmm... I can try... OAI has something called 'projects', but local handling with API calls is probably the right way of doing it. Easier to switch providers, run and debug in place. With current prices it should be like < $10/month.
Yeah. Actually if those companies did I suspect it wouldn't hurt them one iota.
This is not normal.

The next step on this path would be for Republicans to introduce some innocuous-sounding legislation...

This is simply Marxist crap and outright untrue.

> in case of crisis the gov routinely starts bailouts and save the financial markets with interest rate operations or open market operations. those operations have deep re-distributive implications

This is a rather new phenomenon and not at all necessary for profitable private investment.

It's really completely irrelevant to the discussion.
Yeah, like the other model where you pay people to invest money for you that makes everything more expensive (housing, healthcare) and shittier (jobs, concerts, games) or disappear for the sake of ROI that you don't even get the majority off.

PAYGO-style is definitly the more sustainable approach.
Check the date of that video, if you are trying to spread propaganda at least do it right.
Genius! I assume it's intended to be used to moderate the input to and output of OpenAI models, but I think it will moderate anything regardless of the source, and it's free (aside from one network call, and potentially sharing data with OpenAI?).

I think its worse, the governments will be unable to deliver (my perspective is Europe). Think one needs to consider many strategies to avoid starving when retired. But I fully expect my EU government to give me no pension, no matter what they say today.
Given the number of times he has been on the news for bombastic claims he doesn’t follow through on, I don’t think we need to guess. He hasn’t changed.
Only hedging to the extent that the corporations are not themselves dependent on the government. (Edit: or have a common risk factor).

Demographic shifts in particular are something that hurts both.
These LLMs are already very helpful when studying scientific fields. If you're reading a scientific paper and come across an equation you don't know how to derive, LLMs can often correctly derive it from first principles. It's not 100% reliable, but when it works, it's incredibly helpful.
Maybe not that pertinent, but I remember someone computing joules per word written in humans vs chatgpt and found the former to be a bit higher.

This is great news. As much as I love my PineTime watch, its getting a little long in the tooth and I'd love to see some upgrades to it, hardware-wise..

That said, there are a lot of other open-source watches in the pipeline that could use a bit of motivation to update their designs .. The TT-Watch situation is pretty fruitful .. I have a Watchy in my drawer somewhere that I should probably get working again .. all of these options, and maybe Pebble can learn something from them ..
Well yeah, both sides are fucked so I'll use the free tool and not the $200/month tool, it really isn't rocket science
