The Causality Loop of Deepseek

Tech Talk #5

Tech Disrupts, then Gets Disrupted by Cheaper and Faster Tech, Rinse, Repeat

The talk of the town this week is Deepseek. Using Open Source LLM’s, it’s trained it’s own LLM with only 6 Million Dollars and average chip hardware. This is in comparison to Open Ai raising over 500 Million in Capital recently.

It’s a time honored tradition. Founder Disrupts Industry, then gets disrupted by better and cheaper technology. Once an innovation hits the marketplace, it’s a race to the bottom. Software Technology is instantly reproducible. Not only that, but if the technology is open sourced, you don’t even have to start form zero, you can just make improvements on the Software and make it your own..

Club 255 is the #1 Recommended Career Improvement & Future of Work Newsletter for STEM Professionals. Consider becoming a Paid Subscriber Here.

That’s basically what Deepseek did. Now they may not have the resources yet to achieve product market fit for everyone that wants to jump on, but the Technology train will keep on choo-chooing now at an exponential rate. This is innovation, built on ideas and processes defined by it’s predecessors. Artists have been doing the same sort of thing for years.

Until Tomorrow,
