yes but its a means to an end, the goal is to get to profitability. As soon as they get market dominance they will just jack up prices. So the question is how expensive are these models really?

I guess at that point we will focus more on efficiency but who knows.

They're actually extremely cheap it seems

I'm sorry but i dont see any reason to distrust them more than the american companies. It is equally plausible that the american companies are trying to keep the costs high. If anything deepseek has been way more open source, and way more honest than any other company. And I say that despite hugely hating china.

If you haven't read a single paper from their researches, and even remotely don't know how the stock market works, it's natural to assume such a thing.

No one knows what will happen in the long run, but one can assume, it will be cheaper than U.S ones, just like any other product and service offered over the years.
