(Meta's Llama used to occupy the opensource spot, so this has begun to displace it. DeepSeek was built by a hedge fund, so it will have financial skills, but not personal or social network yet. They could have eased it in rather than spook the market like that which means the sectors are going to all react, likely toward China. But fears of tanking StarGate seem like a category error since that is oriented more toward infrastructure, if not global supply chains and possibly governance. Everyone's strengths are being tested in the new administration, including foreign regulations originally aimed at Big Tech. Ironically, this thing can write newsletters based on Search for its own topic and seems fairly objective if no one criticizes The Party. Organizations can run stand-alone on their data. Eventually they want to network again which requires standards and perhaps a way to search across AIs which is not yet solved, e.g. amid agents and such.It is like a cog in the architecture, necessary but not sufficient. NVidia itself does this, but it gives others like AMD a shot again. Historically this was seen by Apple against IBM, or when AT&T was being broken up. The Valley will take notice. People are lining up for hardware again. On the other hand, Huawei was suspect, and TikTok ends up having US owners in part, so this will be interesting to see how the balance of power fares. Big Tech offers virtual machines for just such occasions. It will be curious to see what emerges besides Star Wars this time If it was a domestic startup, or UK, who invented science, people would actually be excited. Spock returns; possibly the search for extraterrestrial goes mobile. Meta is likely looking for what gives its glasses a boost where. Besides, NDEs are supposed to be good for Remote Viewing.)
