Gordon Campbell: DeepSeek, And China’s Inexorable Rise

Nvidia has since clawed back 5% of its prior value. Still, the advent of DeepSeek as a low cost market disruptor has been described by venture capitalist Mark Andreessen as “AI’s Sputnik moment” and if you don’t know what that means, ask your grandparents.
