How China's DeepSeek Could Disrupt Financial Markets & Global Stability

Written by Doug Casey ** on 11 February 2025. Posted in Navegando / Browsing....

DeepSeek under CCP controlTechnology—all technologies—inevitably become better and cheaper over time. That trend has been in motion, at an accelerating rate, since at least the end of the last Ice Age about 12,000 years ago. Since the start of the Industrial Revolution about 200 years ago the hyperbolic curve has gone vertical.

Why, therefore, has DeepSeek surprised everybody? Its arrival is part of a very established and obvious trend. I’m just amused by the ironic fact that no existing AIs seem to have predicted it.

That being the case, somebody, or AI itself for all we know, has already come up with something even better than DeepSeek. That’s inevitable. "They" say that AI will soon be vastly smarter, and arguably wiser, than humans. If so, maybe it will be kinder and gentler too. Unless its programmers have bad intentions—which is quite likely.

I’m not a computer nerd—far from it—but I am a technophile. Looking at the history of technology, starting with Heraclitus, Leonardo, Edison, the Wright Brothers, Steve Jobs, and thousands of others, almost all of the great breakthroughs in history have been made by individual geniuses working on their own or with small groups. Getting the government involved would almost certainly be a gigantic mistake.

What is DeepSeek? 

Written by Democracia Participativa on 28 January 2025. Posted in Navegando / Browsing....

DeepSeek has turned the tech world upside down. The low-cost, tiny Chinese company has developed AI chatbots at just a fraction of the cost of the major players in the industry.

DeepSeek

Jan.28 (DPnet).
– A surprisingly powerful and efficient Chinese AI model created a year ago has overtaken the tech sector by storm. It is known as DeepSeek R1. This is a breakthrough AI product of a startup business that has somehow managed a market commotion that famed tech investor Marc Andreessen has called “AI’s Sputnik moment”: R1 can nearly match the capabilities of its far more famous rivals, including OpenAI’s GPT-4, Meta’s Llama and Google’s Gemini — but at a fraction of the cost.

On Monday, DeepSeek, a tiny company that reportedly employs no more than 200 people, caused American chipmaker Nvidia to have almost $600bn wiped off its market value – the biggest drop in US stock market history.  The startup was founded in 2023 in Hangzhou, China, by Liang Wenfeng, who previously co-founded one of China's top hedge funds, High-Flyer.

Artificial Intelligence: A Central Theme at Davos' World Economic Forum 2025

Written by Democracia Participativa on 27 January 2025. Posted in Navegando / Browsing....

Davos, Jan.22 (DPnet).– Some of the largest firms in the world set up temporary meeting and event rooms for a week in cafes, stores, and restaurants. Their branding frequently reveals what corporate executives are thinking about. 

Artificial Intelligence event in Davos 2025It’s no surprise, then, that artificial intelligence dominated the space this year, given the boom in this technology. This has propelled firms to capitalize on AI interest—especially from businesses. A poll from consultancy Accenture out on Monday revealed that 58% of executives expect generative AI solutions to be adopted at scale within the organization in 2025.

This year's World Economic Forum meeting in Davos, Switzerland, had the theme "Collaboration for the Intelligent Age," uniting world leaders to discuss a variety of topics. Workday, Intel, and Salesforce IT executives provided information about their most recent artificial intelligence products during the event.
