His character tried to make cheap Chinese knockoffs of all major platforms and products.
Deep dive is a cheap Chinese knockoff of ChatGPT.
It’s a good joke, Bront

This is the third time I’ve seen this exact image used in relation to this. First was a YouTube video, second was a mastodon post, and now this. Not sure who started it, but I feel it’s kinda racist and just shitty. I get the reference, but it’s nothing more than “haha, asian guy that was on computer stuff show”.

It’s not really a cheap knockoff though, it’s a revolution in efficiency. It proved that you don’t need $100m to beat the best models if you show a bit of ingenuity
It’s like building a boat to cross a lake when everyone around you is trying to use their car by adding tires to increase buoyancy (nvidia are the ones selling tires)

It’s a better joke if you interpret “cheap” and “knockoff” very literally.

Why do you people get offended on our behalf for even the most minuscule thing. What’s racist about it? On the contrary, it’s fucking awesome that some Chinese manage to do this with a meager sum in such time. Why would I want people to use a non Asian person to represent an Asian guy?

my taking offense isn’t even because of the race mostly. it’s because they are saying it’s a clone of o1. Of which it is not. That’s some very good development that’s been done and open sourced so anyone can use it for free which is being overshadowed by the fact that it happened in China and not 'murica

It’s because people the meme states that DeepSeek didn’t accomplish anything novel. That the real innovation was done in America with ChatGPT. And there is a narrative that the Chinese are not original, but only really good at copying other people’s work often using inferior parts. That last part, while not explicit in the meme, is in the culture.
My understanding is that what DeepSeek did was novel for the training data it used l. However, there are some experts who question the ability to train the model using the limited budget they claimed and their understanding of the field would require far more processing power. I think there’s a non-racist and racist way of interpreting and answering this question.

Saying company A copied company B isn’t racist. Those clsims are made all the time. This is really digging to make it racist.

That’s not the part that I was claiming was racist.
