  • Summary

  • In episode 36 of The AI Fix, Graham and Mark take a long look at DeepSeek, an upstart AI out of China that was trained on a shoestring, shook up Wall Street, kneecapped Nvidia, and challenged America's AI hegemony.

    Graham also discovers a remarkably f***ing effective way to remove AI snippets, a personal mobility robot gets a bit over-excited, some aliens regret installing an FTP server, and Mark explains what o3-mini owes to Spinal Tap.
