In the AI world, honeymoons last about 24 hours.

The launch of DeepSeek is no different.

As I mentioned yesterday, DeepSeek is the new black.

They were able to make it MUCH cheaper ($6M vs HUNDREDS of millions) than other LLMs.

In a nutshell, they used existing models (OpenAI-4o, etc.) and “distilled” the model down to a much faster model that uses a “summarized” version of the larger models.

As you can imagine, OpenAi and Meta are NOT happy.

Apparently, OpenAI built “watermarks” into their model for just this scenario.

And Microsoft announced that they have discovered these watermarks in DeepSeek’s model.

Expect prompt legal action forthwith.

What does this mean for you?

Right now, we’re just spectators—enjoy it while you can.

But this re-enforces the drum I’ve been beating — we can’t put all of our AI eggs in one AI basket.

TikTok was “banned” because of its Chinese ownership — it’s not unrealistic to expect the same from DeepSeek.

We have to build our AI automations to be flexible between LLMs.

We should be using multiple AI tools—don’t rely just on one product.

And Build automations in a way that lets you quickly change LLMs if needed.

But the best solution is just running YOUR OWN LLM.

I’m going to be posting a video on how to install your own LLM in MINUTES (I’m even going to have a timer!) — make sure you are subscribed to my YouTube channel!
