As AI gets more expensive, popularity of Chinese AI models like DeepSeek is growing fast, even though these models are not as good as ChatGPT, Claude and Gemini. Industry experts believe the cost pressure is real and most companies will move to a hybrid model for AI use.
I find deepseek is straight up better for search than google at this point, and it also does a way better job including non western sources in the results
I haven’t used it, i haven’t gone out of my way to use llm shit aside from seeing google insert it into search results and watching the quality go from where it was giving people poison cake recipes to now where it’s generally pretty good at generating a plausible answer to whatever, and I haven’t seen it fuck up food at all
