Episode description

Let's unpack the rise of DeepSeek, the scrappy Chinese AI lab that’s making waves and giving Silicon Valley sleepless nights. From handing out free code-generating models to launching a budget-friendly reasoning powerhouse, DeepSeek is proving that you don’t need deep pockets to shake up the AI game. Host Emily Laird explores their tech wizardry—think Mixture-of-Experts and FP8 Mixed Precision Training—and their bold open-source approach that’s both celebrated and criticized.
