Shameless plug: If you want the real story on what’s working in AI and where things are heading, join my session on Wednesday.

We’re breaking down how enterprises are innovating responsibly.

Plus you’ll hear directly from both the startups building the future and the enterprises deploying them.

Welcome to #MSIgnite 2025!

It’s my 2nd Ignite, and here are my top 3 tips:

1. Collect your badge on Monday. Security lines will be long on day 1

2. Check out the ancillary event where the best relationship building happens

3. Don’t just attend sessions, hunt for the people behind the ideas

And I didn’t even talk about how impressive their approach was.

Especially the part where they introduced step-by-step reasoning swithout relying on massive supervised datasets.

Just pure reinforcement learning.

At a fraction of the cost.

Glad they open sourced the model.

Lots to learn here!

I agree that the model is nothing short of impressive.

In fact, I even wrote a detailed post about it: www.linkedin.com/posts/heenap...

I almost cannot believe Deepseek is causing a bloodbath in the US stock market.

I agree that the tech is impressive. But look at how biased the model is.

Both data and model are likely biased. Note: it’s not even hallucinating - it isn’t answering the question!

Imagine living in a state where this is the only information you could get about your history.

DeepSeek is clearly a remarkable bit of technology, but this exchange highlights how important censorship is in AI.
