Everywhere you look right now in the media, the news cycle is dominated by attacks on Chinese AI Labs, saying they trained on illegal Nvidia GPUs, the can only do what they do because they distill on American model companies responses, they lack any true capability of innovation internally and can only copy what they see. I have not seen this many coordinated attacks against Chinese AI Labs before, although after Deepseek was released last year there were definitely atttacks. I’ve been thinking about this barrage of negative coverage at this very moment from every single American AI Labs, plus Nvidia (all at the same time) and it occurred to me that the last time Deepseek launched a model there was massive investor panic, and what is expected to happen anytime now? Yep, Deepseek is expected to release their anticipated V4 version of Deepseek. I believe this timing of negative coverage is specifically designed to drown out any media attention on the upcoming release. Nvidia and the AI companies don’t want a repeat of last year, specifically with the investor panic, as they try to raise record amounts for their own AI. And Nividia and Google, etc… would rather not have their stock values decline by double digits. So they are manufacturing FUD to try to prevent it. Just think about the timing of all this negative media posting when you see it and look through the FUD to see the real fear based on historical evidence before buying into it. If I was the company behind Deepseek I’d hold my release of Deekseek for a while until the media circus dies down now that the American AI industry has shot all their bullets. submitted by /u/awebb78
