an arms race for what? more efficient slop? most of their value comes from the expected exclusivity - that say openai is the only one who can run something like o1. deepseek has made that collapse. i doubt they will stop doing stuff, but i dont think you understand the nature of the situation here.
also lol, "performs well in synthetic tests it was optimized to score well in" yes that literally describes every llm. Make no mistake: none of this has a real use case. not deepseek's model, not openai's, not apples, etc. this is all nonsense, literally. the stock market lost 2 trillion dollars overnight because something that doesnt have a use case was one upped by something else that also doesnt have a use case. it's very funny.
