In a way, this is good news. I am expecting to see a lot less of AI-boosters claiming that they are "productive in ways you don't understand", now that they'll have to dish out upwards of a few thousand bucks per month for whatever PoCs they are building. And the excited hired middle managers and CEOs spending other people's money will have to be much more careful about their budget starting June.
Nah, they are moving to DeepSeek v4 Pro which is like Sonnet tier for a fraction of the price.
And DeepSeek V4 Flash is comparable to Gemini Flash at also a fraction of the cost.
These models are just quite chatty from my experience. Only downside.
And DeepSeek is planning to deploy to their own Huawei TPUs, halving their already cheap prices.
