DeepSeek suffers cyberattack--that's a shame

Chinese AI startup DeepSeek has announced a temporary limitation on new user registrations for its DeepSeek-V3 platform, due a large-scale cyberattack targeting its services.
Despite the setback, the company has assured that existing users will retain access.
This move comes as DeepSeek experiences a surge in popularity, positioning itself as a competitor to established AI tools such as OpenAI's ChatGPT and Google's Gemini.
The startup faced website outages earlier on the same day, coinciding with its AI assistant becoming the top-rated free application on the US Apple App Store.
“Due to large-scale malicious attacks on DeepSeek’s services, we are temporarily limiting registrations to ensure continued service,” the company said on its status page.
“Existing users can log in as usual. Thanks for your understanding and support,” the company added.
These disruptions, marking the longest in approximately 90 days, occurred amidst the company's escalating popularity.

They bought legal chips that were made specifically to circumvent the export laws.

New users just couldn’t be made.

Why do people have a problem with DeepSeek?
It simply shows that this tech can be made more cheaply.

They actually took a different engineering (logical) approach, in addition to using cheaper chips...

If their datacenters were solar-powered, some of you would legitimately melt

Scruffy, I've noticed this as well. It seems people aren't interested in efficiencies driven by competition in the marketplace, or really economics at all anymore. All they seem care about is nationalism and partisan politics.
Welcome to populism.

You just got them to the thread.

All jokes aside. 20 years ago a retired military intelligence officer told me that. His son was in military intelligence and assigned to the NSA at that time.
TWENTY YEARS AGO..."if you want the government to read something within seconds of hitting enter, type the three letters NSA. They will be reading it immediately."
HI, FEDS!!!

NSA should've been up Nvidia's arse for making and selling those special chips for China.
