Unpacking the Latest in Artificial Intelligence: Developments of the Week
Artificial Intelligence continues to surge unrelentingly, with groundbreaking innovations cropping up each week. The recent announcements from major players like DeepSeek, OpenAI, Google, and Oracle, among others, highlight the accelerated pace and tremendous impact of AI on various sectors.
DeepSeek's Financial Puzzle
One of the most significant points of debate surrounding DeepSeek's advanced AI model pertains to the alleged costing of the model. Contrary to the projected $5 million training cost, a recent analysis suggests that the training bill may have been a tad higher - considerably higher than $500 million, to be exact. The assertion has sparked significant industry discourse and could potentially have far-reaching implications for the competitive landscape in AI.
OpenAI Takes on DeepSeek
Reports also divulge OpenAI scrutinizing DeepSeek. The bone of contention lies in the accusation of DeepSeek possibly using OpenAI's models for distillation purposes, an action at odds with OpenAI's terms of service. Notably, even amidst these criticisms, Microsoft announced plans to host DeepSeek's R1 model on its Azure platform, adding another layer of complexity to the unfolding drama.
OpenAI's Gauge on National Progress
OpenAI's partnerships with the US government aim to enhance research across various fields via AI. Around 15,000 scientists from diverse disciplines within the US government will gain access to OpenAI's latest reasoning models, thus marking a significant leap for AI’s role in advancing science and national security.
Google’s Gemini Evolution
A considerable development in the AI world last week came from Google with its launch of Gemini 2.0 Flash. This updated version promises speedier responses and improved performance on both desktop and mobile platforms. It also brings enhanced capabilities like better responses to image inputs, thus significantly boosting user experience.
Unraveling Copyright Conundrums
From a legal standpoint, the US copyright office added clarity by stating that AI-generated outputs based on text prompts weren't protected by the current copyright law. This emphasizes the challenge to intellectual property rights presented by the uncontrollable nature of AI outputs.
OpenAI Receives Possible Funding Boost
Another considerable development involves SoftBank Group, which is reportedly in the discussion to steer an estimated $40 billion funding round for OpenAI. If realized, the agreement will set the record for investment in a private company, thus signifying the escalating competitiveness within the AI sector.
Oracle’s AI Agents Debut
In a bid to optimize supply chain management, Oracle introduced new AI agents in its recent Cloud World event. This will potentially automate and streamline tasks for supply chain workers, thereby improving efficiency and decision-making in businesses.
OpenAI Rolls Out New Reasoning Model
Finally, OpenAI unveiled its new reasoning models, the o3 Mini and o3 Mini High. These models bring faster responses and include a game-changing feature - the ability to connect to the internet. This opens new possibilities for rapid information gathering and decision-making within the AI landscape.
In conclusion, this past week's AI developments provide a glimpse into the vast potential of AI and its ability to shift paradigms across global industries. Every innovative step taken.

Podcast Transcript
Jordan Wilson [00:00:17]:
Did DeepSeek's groundbreaking AI model really cost only 5 ish million dollars to train? A new analysis says it costs way more. A new copyright ruling on AI dropped, but hardly no one noticed or pay attention. And OpenAI not only dropped an impressive new reasoning model in o three Mini, but they're eyeing a $40,000,000,000 capital infusion just a week after announcing the 500000000000 AI infrastructure plan in Stargate. Yeah. If you thought AI news was gonna slow down, you know, it's the December, was ramping up, so we're gonna have a slow Absolutely not. There is so much to cover, and we're gonna be talking about those three stories and a whole lot more today on everyday AI. What's going on y'all? My name is Jordan Wilson, and I'm the host of everyday AI, and this thing's for you. It is your daily livestream podcast and free daily newsletter helping us all not just learn AI, but how we can keep up with all this stuff that's happening because it's, AI is literally, happening around the clock on the weekends when you sleep.
Jordan Wilson [00:01:27]:
Guess what's also happening? Me, our team, we are keeping you up to date because it doesn't just help you to know what's going on. You have to know what actually matters and how it's going to impact your company or your career. So that's what we do. Most Mondays, we're back after a week or two off with our, AI news that matters. So we are back for the week of Feb. 3. And if you're new here, yeah, like I said, we do this almost every single Monday going over the top news. One other thing, if you are brand new here, maybe checking us out on the podcast, thank you.
Jordan Wilson [00:02:00]:
Check your show notes for the link to our website. That's your new best friend in AI. It's, youreverydayAI.com. Go sign up for our free daily newsletter there. In our daily newsletter, we recap each show every single Monday through Friday as well as there's, like, now 400 plus back episodes you can go listen to, learn from the world's leading experts all sorted by category. Alright. Also, gotta give one more shout out. Live stream audience, did y'all stick with our our our twenty twenty five AI predictions and road map series? It is still highly relevant.
Jordan Wilson [00:02:34]:
You know, a lot of things that we're gonna be talking about today predicted this two weeks ago when we released it, so make sure you go listen to those on our website. Alright. Without further ado, let's get into the AI news that matters for the week of Feb. 3, 2025. So let's talk about the hot topic. Alright. And FYI, y'all, I'm gonna have a dedicated show on DeepSeek, later this week. I intentionally took a lot of time on this.
Jordan Wilson [00:03:03]:
People were reaching out, Jordan. Give us your take on DeepSeek. I said, nope. It's too soon. Alright. But here's one of the reasons why. Apparently, according to a new new report, DeepSeek has spent maybe a little bit more than it was initially believed training their new models. So, according to a new report, DeepSeek's hardware expenditure is estimated to be significantly higher than $500,000,000, and that's according to a new report by SemiAnalysis.
Jordan Wilson [00:03:31]:
So despite these, reported high hardware costs, DeepSeek AI reported that its model training costs were only about $550,000,0.0. Yeah. Pretty stark contrast between $550,000,0.0 in every single other state of the art large language model that's ever been trained usually for about 10 to 20 times that cost. And, obviously, when DeepSeek, you know, with their, both their v three and their r one reasoning model, when they said, hey. We only spent $550,000,0.0 to train this model. The entire US stock market went up in arms, lost, more than $2,000,000,000,000 in market cap in reaction to this news. Y'all, speaking of that 2025 AI road map, I warned you of this. I said this is gonna happen, right, before it happened.
Jordan Wilson [00:04:23]:
So I wouldn't pay too much attention to it, although, I think Wall Street got tricked. I think journalists got tricked. I think your favorite, social media AI person got tricked. Guess who didn't? Me. Yeah. Go back. You know what? I'm already starting out on a hot take Tuesday even though it's, the news that matters Monday. Go go see who you follow in AI, and go see what they said two weeks ago about deep seek, and then check back in with me in two weeks.
Jordan Wilson [00:04:50]:
You know, I'm a former journalist, so, I was not surprised that a lot of large, news organizations essentially just copy and pasted what DeepSeek said and did not look into it, which is one of the reasons among many others that, you know, The US stock market saw a huge, swing. But the new report from SemiAnalysis highlights the substantial compute power needed for generating synthetic data, a key factor in DeepSeek's, reported hardware spending. So DeepSeek's r one model has been praised for its capabilities with experts noting its rapid advancements despite US restrictions on chip exports to China. Yeah. That's one of the biggest things. It's like, you can there's only, like, one chip from NVIDIA that can make a state of the art model like this and, right, reportedly DeepSeq in their last training run, this one that cost $560,000,0.0, wasn't using them. Again, these are all according to reports, in what DeepSeq, AI itself set. So, obviously, at the center of all this was number one, NVIDIA.
Jordan Wilson [00:05:52]:
Right? Saw their stock price go down, I believe it was, by 17% over the course of, like, two days because now everyone said, oh, it's so cheap, and you you don't need NVIDIA's, you know, highest powered AI to to or their their highest powered, GPUs to train a state of the art, model. More on that, later this week when we go in-depth, into the whole DeepSeek saga, on our show, but it was, probably two of the companies in the spotlight aside from DeepSeek were NVIDIA and OpenAI. Right? OpenAI, the by by far, the leader in the large language model game, reportedly spent about a hundred million dollars training their old, GPT four models. So they were kind of thrust in the spotlight. So OpenAI CEO, Sam Altman, acknowledged the quality of the deep seek model and emphasized the competitive nature of the AI industry. And also concerns obviously have been raised about The US potentially lagging behind, China in AI development. Another thing I told you was gonna happen in 2025, we are gonna see China leapfrog, The US, and I, yeah, I called a lot of these, quote, unquote, open source AI models Trojan horses. Alright? So we'll see how that actually plays out.
Jordan Wilson [00:07:06]:
Alright. Our next piece of AI news, obviously related because this really shook up the entire US economy, not just the AI, the generative AI space, the large language model players, big tech, no, The US economy. But OpenAI, at first, they were like, okay. Good job, DeepSeek, and then we saw the reporting where Open AI is scrutinizing DeepSeek for allegedly using OpenAI's own models to distill or to help make their own model. So according to reports, OpenAI is investigating allegations that DeepSeek used OpenAI's AI models to create its competing chatbot. So that was first reported by Bloomberg. So like we talked about, deep DeepSeek's chatbot caused a significant market disruption, causing AI linked US tech stocks to lose about 2000000000000 in market cap. A lot of that has since been recovered, but pretty pretty significant.
Jordan Wilson [00:08:04]:
Anytime you see, $2,000,000,000,000 in market cap erased from The US economy, pretty big deal. So DeepSeek claimed that its AI model was developed at a fraction of the cost and hardware needed compared to rivals like OpenAI, Claude, Google, etcetera. So OpenAI's CEO, Sam Altman, initially express, expressed admiration for DeepSeek, but did later acknowledge evidence of distillation or a technique where smaller model smaller models replicate larger models. Right? So you have this whole kind of, like, teacher student, paradigm between the models where, you know, quote, unquote, smaller companies are just using outputs from larger models to, distill information or to take or borrow, outputs from a larger model to train theirs, which is against, almost every single proprietary large language models terms of service such as OpenAI. So, this is this is happening quickly all in in our daily newsletter. We'll continue, to keep you up to date as we have this week, but the US Navy, interestingly enough, has banned DeepSeek's apps, due to potential security and ethical concerns, and the US National Security Council is evaluating the AI apps implications. So yeah. Yes.
Jordan Wilson [00:09:27]:
DeepSeek's, you you you can download it. Right? It is it's not a true open source model. Alright. I'll get into that later in the week. But it is a fairly open source model in the same way that Meta's Llama, it's fairly open source, not a %. But yes. So people are kind of missing the point. Everyone's like, oh, you can, you know, download it.
Jordan Wilson [00:09:45]:
It's open source. Well, not it's not really open source, according to all of the rules for, open like, for something to be considered truly open source, but most people are still just using it via the app interface. So there's a lot of, intricacies with the data sharing and, really just privacy concerns. Right? In the same way that, you know, the whole TikTok ban, was being talked about for two plus years. It was banned for, I don't know, a day. All the teenagers went crazy. US president Trump reinstated TikTok, but they are on a shot clock now. So I think we're gonna be seeing the same things, at least the app, on the, iPhone, could be banned.
Jordan Wilson [00:10:26]:
Right? So it topped The US charts, for free iOS apps. Right? So a lot of people, you know, downloaded DeepSeek, on their phone on their iPhones. I wouldn't be surprised if it does get banned in The US eventually. It's already been banned in other countries, such as Italy. So the situation is presenting a significant challenge for Silicon Valley, in the global AI competition. Also, David Sacks, Trump's AI, adviser and, SAR, I think, suggested that intellectual property theft may have a cure, occurred, by DeepSeek. So, you know, it's not just OpenAI and, you know, reporters, hinting at this. This is, from now someone in Donald Trump's, official, kind of, government in a in an official government role accusing DeepSeek of distilling from OpenAI's model, which is not, not legal at least according to OpenAI's terms of service.
Jordan Wilson [00:11:26]:
And you might be wondering, okay. Well, what's the big deal? Well, I mean, number one, most people aren't downloading this thing and running it locally, number one. Number two, data privacy and concerns. It's a lot different, you know, if if you are giving your data, especially as a business, you know, to a Meta, to a Google, to a Microsoft, to a OpenAI. Right? Because, at least here in The US, and I know we have listeners from all over the world, but I am putting this. I live in The US. The majority of our listeners, live in The US, so I am putting this through that point of view. There's a lot of huge concerns, when you are essentially connecting all of your business data and uploading it and sending it, to a company based in China.
Jordan Wilson [00:12:11]:
You really have to understand how China treats its data and its link to the government, which is not the same here in The US. So more on that later in the week. Alright. More DeepSeek news, and this one gets a little weird because Microsoft has announced that it will host, DeepSeek r one on its Azure cloud service despite those exact accusations that we just talked about. So, yes, it now looks like OpenAI is rightfully so pointing the finger at DeepSeek, yet Microsoft, which is one of the biggest backers of OpenAI, did just announce that they will be making, the r one, the reasoning model from DeepSeq available, on its Azure platform. So, yeah, pretty noteworthy as it involves a major player in AI, Microsoft, which, like I said, is OpenAI's largest investor now offering access to the model accused of violating OpenAI's terms of service. And not only that, but from the company that I think was maybe kind of tricking The US economy, into going down. More on that later this week.
Jordan Wilson [00:13:25]:
Alright? So, Microsoft's decision to host r one is seen as, making it more legitimate in the business community despite that ongoing dispute and the probe into data, data extraction practices by DeepSeek. Also, Microsoft announced, OpenAI's o one reasoning model would be made available to even free users in Microsoft Copilot, enhancing Copilot's ability to address complex questions with their think deeper feature, which was previously only available to Copilot Pro subscribers. So yes, now you do have, the o one reasoning available to even Copilot, free subscribers. Alright. Our next piece of AI news. Yeah. A lot with OpenAI this week, y'all. So OpenAI announced partnerships with the US government, to enhance research across various fields using AI, marking a significant step in AI's role in advancing science and national security.
Jordan Wilson [00:14:31]:
So approximately 15000 scientists across diverse disciplines within the US government will gain access to OpenAI's latest reasoning models according to the announcement. So researchers from Los Alamos, Lawrence Livermore, and Sandia National Labs, so those are all US government entities, will utilize o one or another o series model. Alright. So, on Venata, which is an NVIDIA supercomputer at Los Alamos with Microsoft's support in deployment. So OpenAI also announced ChatGPT gov, a secure AI solution designed specifically for US government agencies, to use ChatGPT. So agencies can self host. That's an interesting one. Agencies can self host ChatGPT to manage security and compliance, reducing risk tied to handling classified information with external AI models.
Jordan Wilson [00:15:30]:
Alright. Moving on from OpenAI at least for a couple of stories here. Google has announced the rollout of Gemini two point o Flash, which promises faster responses and improved performance for users on desktop and mobile platforms. So the update is currently more widely available on the desktop with mobile users on the Google Pixel smartphone still experiencing the previous versions. So Gemini two point o flash, enhances tasks such as writing, brainstorming, and learning by providing a smoother user experience. The model also offers improved, response to image inputs, although free users can only upload images and not other file types. So previously only available to Gemini advanced subscribers, the two point o flash model is now accessible to all users, providing a significant update from the one point o flash model. Yeah.
Jordan Wilson [00:16:26]:
This is pretty big because the front end of Google Gemini, up until Dec. 0, they weren't really, transparent in what version you were running. Right? So, I actually did a ton of digging, even reaching out to people at Google. And finally, I essentially got a hint that, you you know, up until Dec. 0, for the most part, the model that you were using, you know, if you go to gemini.google.com. Right? So it's different than if you're, you know, using Vertex or Google AI Studio on the back end. But if you were just logging in and using the Gemini chatbot, you were generally using a version of Gemini that was six to nine months outdated, which is not good. So that changed in Dec.
Jordan Wilson [00:17:04]:
0. But now we have the official version of two point o Flash where previously, we had an experimental version of the Gemini two point o model, but now we have the official Gemini two point o flash inside of, Google Gemini and the Google Gemini app. Alright. A big US copyright case that I didn't really see a lot of people talking about, so I think it's important to chat about it. So this is the second kind of quote, unquote ruling or or, kind of paper to come out of the US copyright office, and there will be more. So the US copyright office has issued guidance stating that AI generated outputs based solely on text prompts are not protected by current copyright law. So this decision highlights the lack of human control in AI generated works which affects their ability to be copyrighted. So this new report from the US copyright office emphasizes that AI systems cannot hold copyrights and users of AI systems are not considered authors of the AI generated outputs.
Jordan Wilson [00:18:13]:
So the unpredictability of AI outputs as demonstrated by a Gemini produced image in the paper underscores the lack of user authorship. So the office contrast AI generated works with traditional art forms like Jackson Pollock's paintings where human control is evident. So using AI as a tool to assist human creativity does not necessarily jeopardize copyright protection for the final human produced work. So, yeah, this one's a little tricky. Right? So what this, report essentially said, if you're using a text only, prompt, probably, like, let's say you're using, you know, Midjourney or, you know, Dolly, although I don't think anyone would be using DALL E. Although reportedly, according to OpenAI's, AMA on Reddit, they are closer to, releasing the successor to DALL E. But regardless, if you're just using a prompt, right, to inside MidJourney or, inside any of the stable diffusion models or inside runway, right, inside a video platform. If you're just using a text output, you will very it's very unlikely that whatever you produce, you will be able to copyright.
Jordan Wilson [00:19:24]:
Alright? And in instances where there's a lot of kind of human back and forth, and even human inputs. Right? So let's say you create a piece of art by hand, and then you go in and enhance it with, you know, in AI in painting from one of these programs, even from something like Adobe Photoshop. Right? That's where it becomes extremely vague. I am not a huge fan, of this ruling just because of the gray area. I would say this ruling, we'll link to it in the newsletter, and we did last week. But I'd say it's like 90% gray area. Right? Because, essentially, they said in those instances, where it's kind of almost like an equal, input of human and AI, they're all going to be, kind of, judged for their ability to be copyrighted on a case by case basis, which does not make sense. I'm not saying I have the answers, but, I I I don't think this is, the ruling really anyone was hoping for because all it really said is, okay.
Jordan Wilson [00:20:28]:
Well, if you use text only, you can't copyright that, which I think a lot of people already knew. And then conversely, the the only other kind of new piece of information that I think that we really got, is, hey. If you if it's kind of equal parts human and equal parts AI, it's being tackled on a case by case basis. But, the office for, the office allows for copyright protection in works that incorporate AI generated content with significant creative modification. So, you know, let's say if it's mainly human work with a little bit of, AI, you might still be able to get that copyrighted. Right? Which is huge because here's the thing. In most creative workflows in 2025, it is going to become very hard to create something without the use of AI. Right? And now, you know, we've we've seen all these stories now of, you know, publications and writer's guilds trying to create systems to prove, that your work is not AI generated or AI augmented, which I don't think is going to accurately work because that's not how generative AI and large language models work either or, diffusion models.
Jordan Wilson [00:21:42]:
Right? It's very hard to prove or disprove aside from if you are using a system that does have, an invisible watermarking system, but those are also easy to get around. So it's it's a pretty pretty interesting, announcement here, coming from the second report from the US copyright office. Alright. Moving on. $40,000,000,000. That is billion with a b. So according to reports, SoftBank Group is in discussions to lead another significant funding round of up to $40,000,000,000 for OpenAI, potentially valuing the AI behemoth at $300,000,000,000. This would set a record for a private company investment if this does come to fruition.
Jordan Wilson [00:22:31]:
So the move highlights the escalating competition in the AI sector, particularly with the Chinese players now, with DeepSeek and Quinn really entering the fray in and really putting their stamp on the race in SoftBank has previously valued OpenAI at $260,000,000,000, a substantial increase from a hundred and $50,000,000,000. That was the the, valuation just a few months ago. This new round of funding reportedly is expected to be facilitated through convertible notes contingent upon OpenAI restructuring its business, to limit the control of its nonprofit arm, which is originally how it was founded. SoftBank reportedly has about $30,000,000,000 available for investment with a commitment of up to 25,000,000,000 potentially directed towards OpenAI and its joint venture, Stargate, which we talked about in the newsletter, quite quite a bit over the past week or two. Stargate, if you didn't know, aims to bolsters, The US position in the global AI race against China and others, complementing SoftBank's previous $15,000,000,000 investment into that venture. So, yeah, now, looks like since SoftBank is one of the main financial, supporters of the Stargate project, that kind of joint venture between, what is it? SoftBank, Oracle, Microsoft's in there, more on the data side. So now SoftBank, reportedly going all in doubly on OpenAI by not just the Stargate financial support, in leading kind of the, financial push there, but also in this new round of funding for OpenAI. So, yeah, if you didn't know, the Stargate initiative is a $500,000,000,000 joint venture led by OpenAI, SoftBank, and Oracle, and it aims to expand US' AI infrastructure with significant investment in data centers, job creation, and technological advancements.
Jordan Wilson [00:24:35]:
Alright. Speaking of Oracle, one of the largest companies in the world, just announced, big surprise, advancements in their AI agents capabilities. So Oracle has introduced new AI agents aimed at enhancing supply chain management during its cloud world events in Austin. So the AI agents are designed to automate and streamline task force supply chain workers, improving efficiency and decision making. Oracle's new AI agentic tools are part of the Oracle Fusion Cloud supply chain and manufacturing platform. That is a mouthful and a half targeting areas like product inspections and delivery instructions. So the move aligns with the broader tech industries trends. Everyone's going, you know, agentic in 2024 and 2025, joining the likes of companies like Microsoft, Google, Amazon, NVIDIA, Salesforce, OpenAI, everyone else investing heavily in AI agents.
Jordan Wilson [00:25:41]:
So Oracle's announcement, obviously, like we just talked about, follows the Stargate project collaboration with OpenAI and SoftBank. Alright. And then last but definitely not least, we got a new model that it looks like is going to, at least from a benchmarks perspective, be the highest or the best new model in the world. So we'll see how long that lasts until, you know, Quinn or DeepSeq or Google or Claude, announces a new model. But OpenAI has launched the o three minutei reasoning model, not just that, but also for free. Yes. So a lot of people are saying this is, in response to DeepSeek, releasing their r one for free, but, OpenAI did just announce this for even free users, marking the first time a wide audience can access the most advanced models, which were previously reserved for the $20, a month, ChatGPT plus users or the $200 a month ChatGPT Pro users. So there is yeah.
Jordan Wilson [00:26:51]:
Gotta love these names here, but Sam Altman did say that they were trying to fix their naming problem. So we have two new models actually, o three minutei and o three minutei high. I know. And this follows, o one, which, was before called o one preview, and then we had o one mini. Then we got rid of o one preview and just got o one, but then we also added o one pro. We skipped o two because of some, some some naming, rights over there in The UK from, I I believe a telecom company. And then we skip to o three, but we don't have o three preview. We don't have o three pro, obviously, not yet.
Jordan Wilson [00:27:31]:
Instead, we have o three mini and o three mini high. Oh, gosh. Head scratcher. Alright. Anyways, so oh, these models use the chain of thought reasoning technique, and, Sam Altman did say that they are going to have a little bit more transparency in what is actually happening, in that chain of thought or those reasoning steps. Like other models, have a little bit more transparency. OpenAI has been a little bit more closed off in showing everyone kind of exactly what happens underneath the hood aside from a summary. So according to OpenAI, the o three minutei responds 24% faster than its predecessor, o one minutei.
Jordan Wilson [00:28:14]:
Okay. So comparing o one minutei to o three minutei. So o three minutei responds 64% faster and costs 63% less per input token. Though it does remain about seven times more expensive than non reasoning models like GPT four o Mini. But to me, that makes sense. Right? You're not gonna use, an an o series model for everything if you're a company. Right? You're only, using it for more complex tasks. Right? The the reasoning models, I think they are much better, for, anything in in coding, software development, STEM, anything in advanced mathematics, business intelligence.
Jordan Wilson [00:28:54]:
Right? I think it's great for reasoners. But one thing that I love, and we did a a a big o one, pro episode here on the show. So if you want, you can scroll back and listen to that. It was about 10 to 15 episodes ago. But I think it's also great. These o one, o three models are just great for dumping a lot of data and saying, hey. This is who I am. This is what I'm trying to do.
Jordan Wilson [00:29:19]:
This is, you you know, it requires some business logic. So I think a lot of people are saying, I'm not I'm not in software development. I'm not in business intelligent. Well, do you have a pile of data? Do you have a, a job that requires you to think in a multistep way and make a business decision based on that data? Right? I think it's a the the the o the o one model, completely love it. I'm using it all the time. Even though I thought I would still be using the four o model much more, I'm using the o one and now the o three mini high. What a name there. Much more than I thought.
Jordan Wilson [00:29:55]:
But, the launch signals OpenAI's strategy to maintain its edge in AI innovation despite increasing competition, like we said, from more, quote, unquote, open source models like DeepSeq v three and r one, its reasoning model. But the busy the biggest feature no one's talking about saving what I think is one of the biggest things for last. It connects to the Internet. Alright? O three minutei and o three minutei high connect to the Internet, where the previous o one preview, o one, o one Mini, and o one Pro did not connect to the Internet. And that is extremely important to be able to quickly, query the Internet, pull in information, because one of the biggest things about using a large language model and why I still tell tell companies, do not use Claude on the front end. Right? If you're using it on the back end, connecting it, you you know, with a rad pipeline into your company's most up to date data, sure. Right? But so many companies are using large language models on the front end. Right? They're going to ChatGPT.com, claw A I, gemini Google Com.
Jordan Wilson [00:31:01]:
Right? There's been a lot of problems. I think Gemini, really improved in Dec. 0, and we've seen these updates roll out. But, Claude, it's still not connected to the Internet, although we've seen, some reports that saying they're getting closer to, having that, and then maybe that might be suitable for enterprise companies to use on the front end, right, on on a Teams or an enterprise plan. But, you know, I'm I'm personally very excited, that OpenAI has included the ability to connect to the web in the new o three minutei and o three minutei high model. So there we go.

Despite all that, our next AI news, Microsoft is hosting that somewhat controversial model, DeepSeek r one, on its Azure platform.
