Eager to grasp how DeepSeek RI measures up towards ChatGPT, I conducted a comprehensive comparison between the 2 platforms with 7 prompts. Deepseek fails on censorship.. The most important win is that DeepSeek is cheaper to make use of as an API and customarily sooner than o1. Against my orange curve, this would place DeepSeek third-not bad, considering user leaderboards don’t account for API utilization.
