    What does that number meaningful represent as DeepSeek doing well?

    They can afford to lose more money on this? They have lower operating costs? They have a better way to make money of their users?

    It could indicate any/all/none of theses

      What does that number meaningful represent as DeepSeek doing well? I don’t understand the question

      They can afford to lose more money on this? Yes They have lower operating costs? Yes They have a better way to make money of their users? They are not as profit motivated as their competition

      I don’t think you understand Deepseek’s role in the market. It’s to intentionally undercut US providers.
