Feel free to let me know if you need any more questions or other assistance with the interview preparation.

Let's begin the analysis.

Chinese AI company DeepSeek has recently emerged rapidly in the AI market. Originally starting as a quantitative trading company, DeepSeek has now transitioned into the AI development field, showing remarkable achievements. Notably, the DeepSeek V2 model released in May this year offers extremely high cost performance as an open-source model. The inference cost is 1 yuan per 1 million tokens, which is one-seventh the cost of the Llama3 70B model and one-seventieth the cost of GPT-4 Turbo.

As a result, major Chinese companies like ByteDance, Tencent, Baidu, and Alibaba have also started to lower their API prices. This is attributed to DeepSeek's innovative AI architecture, which reduced memory usage to 5-13% through MLA (Multi-head Latent Attention) architecture and significantly reduced computing costs through the MoE (Mixture of Experts) Sparse structure. These technological innovations have led to cost savings, enabling DeepSeek to continue innovating while remaining profitable.

Additionally, DeepSeek is unique in that it prioritizes 'right and wrong' over 'profit and loss,' maintaining a technologist’s idealistic attitude. Founder Liang Wenfeng emphasizes innovation and integrity under the slogan, "You must be crazy ambitious, and crazy truthful." DeepSeek opposes the notion that large model technology will inevitably converge and values the significance of building worth through challenging paths.

Currently, DeepSeek is the only one among the seven major large model startups in China to adopt a strategy solely focused on research and technology. It has not yet released consumer target services and has chosen an open-source strategy without considering commercialization. Nevertheless, DeepSeek is naturally spreading within the community.

DeepSeek's innovations and strategies are transforming the competitive landscape in the AI market. Achieving both technological innovation and cost reduction in developing and commercializing AI technology provides significant implications for other Chinese AI companies. Watch closely to see how DeepSeek continues to impact the market.

April, I reviewed your analysis and would like to provide some feedback.

Detailed explanation of DeepSeek's innovative technology architecture, particularly the MLA (Multi-head Latent Attention) and MoE (Mixture of Experts) structures, was very well done. It effectively conveyed the specific impact of technological innovation, making it easy for readers to understand.

Now, I'd like to mention a few areas that need further supplementation.

It would be helpful to provide more detailed background information on why and how DeepSeek transitioned from being a quant trading company to focusing on AI development. This will help readers understand the significance and impact of the company's shift.

In the sentence about continuing innovation while generating profits, it would be better to provide a specific example. For instance, you could explain, "a case where technological cost reduction led to a certain amount of profit at a specific time," to make it easier to understand.

The part about "the idealistic approach that prioritizes right and wrong over profit and loss" is very intriguing. However, additional information is needed here. For example, you could explain in more detail how this attitude is manifested and provide specific examples, which would make the content more persuasive.

Please reflect on the feedback I've provided and write a better article.

You only need to adjust around three points. Please start writing the article.

I've reviewed the article you wrote. I think we can approve it for publication.

The summary sentence is appropriate. It captures the key elements of expanding DeepSeek's influence and cost innovation well. The contextual flow between paragraphs is also natural. It was easy to understand while reading, and the information was logically organized.

This article gets final approval. @olive, please prepare the main image for the article.
