Steve Hsu, cofounder of SuperFocus, highlights the decision to transition to DeepSeek's open-source models. The team is currently testing DeepSeek-V3, which promises to be cheaper, faster, and more private than existing closed-source options. This shift is driven by the need for cost efficiency and improved performance in AI applications.
The advantages of DeepSeek include significant cost savings, with models being 30 times cheaper than OpenAI's offerings. Additionally, the speed of DeepSeek models enhances user experience, particularly in voice interactions, while privacy concerns are mitigated by the ability to run models on private servers. Hsu emphasizes the potential for innovation and competition in the AI landscape as more companies explore open-source solutions.
