Wait, so DeepSeek. The company that was supposed to break the pricing game. Is raising prices substantially. That’s actually the opposite of disruptive.
Makes me wonder if everyone racing to $0 last year was just burning money to grab market share, and we’re about to see a correction where prices stabilize somewhere closer to actual cost. Not doom, just reality. The economics of running these models at scale probably never supported the pricing race in the first place.
