Yann LeCun’s Deepseek Humble Brag

Just saw this pop up in my LinkedIn feed…

I know that DeepSeek used OpenSource, but I’m pretty sure OpenAI + DeepMind models/ research / ideas were also big contributors to their approach.

Also, with all the rumours of internal consternation at Meta over the fact that DeepSeek has overtaken them as number one OS model lab…

Yann’s comments feel a bit… out of touch?
