Thanks for explaining, this is so cool! My broker did have API for account NAV, got GPT to calculate it when I started in May Sharpe ratio 4 Calmar ratio 30 Annualized return 60% Annualized vol. 10% Max drawdown -2.1% Expecting these number to cool down going forward IV got really crashed and it will be a more stress testing period ahead. Still, I'm blown away how well AI can generate and manage options premium selling.

Buy what, Truth Social API access?

Sea-Chemical-3266

Yeah it's super easy to simply use Qwen and add a web search API to get recent information Qwen wasn't trained on. These data centers are wasted capital.

ButtholeAnalogy

Whoever bought the Truth Social API for $100k feeling pretty ripped off right now lol

Curious-Pen5547

It's Google. Screw gemini, look at everything they built or make massive profits on and areas they're expanding that many enterprise and medium sized companies utilize. On top of that, their cloud platform, API Platform, Cloud infrastructure that openAI and Anthropic and more use. All this and more that they are building out is increasing profitability further for the long term rather than the short term.

You gotta subscribe to Truth Social API to get early alerts lmao

My point was again more about sprawl - Claude Tag has become so useful - and we have internal use cases that are basically now dependent. Quite sticky. Several teams have deployed autonomous agents in the anthropic console, each with carefully crafted sets of credentials and access patterns API keys which are used in various services (think BYOK instead of using some SaaS credits). Just a few examples. so while I agree with you in the context of swapping out keys (assuming they’re managed centrally), they have designed some useful features that can easily become embedded and sprawl is difficult to manage.

Marcostbo

It's 15 min of work to replace you API integration if you're using langchain and/or bedrock for example Where I work, we replaced Anthropic models with Kimi for every step of one workflow and we are looking forward to do the same with the rest

MorphIQ-Labs

Disclosure: I’m the founder of MorphIQ Labs. We currently have the data pipeline and internal tooling for live GEX calculations and historical reconstruction, including intraday data for 0DTE analysis.  It sits within a broader stack covering options-chain normalization, volatility surfaces, skew and term structure, high-performance pricing and Greeks through FerroRisk, scenario stress and repricing, dealer-positioning analytics, historical replay, and FerroWave-based volatility-regime analysis.  We’re now working through market-data rights and weighing open-source versus commercial licensing models. That could mean open-sourcing parts of the calculation layer while offering licensed data and hosted access through Spread Foundry or the underlying platform APIs. No release date yet, but this is under active consideration.  Would you prioritize API/CSV access for backtesting, a TradingView overlay, or both?

That Morningstar 150-holding cap is a known headache once you blend multiple accounts with heavy individual equity positions. A few alternatives depending on how deep you want to go: 1. Empower (formerly Personal Capital): Free and connects directly via Plaid/Yodlee. It handles large aggregated portfolios easily and gives a clean macro breakdown of asset allocation, sector exposure, and cap-size mix across all holdings. 2. Portfolio Visualizer: Great if you just want to export his accounts as a CSV and upload them. It gives solid factor/sector exposure breakdowns without the Morningstar interface lag. 3. OpenBB Terminal: If you’re comfortable with Python or open-source desktop terminals, OpenBB handles custom multi-account data feeds with zero holding limits. *Quick workaround inside Morningstar:* If he really wants to stick with X-Ray's underlying fund look-through engine, aggregate his small individual stock positions into 5-10 sector-representative buckets or filter for the top positions driving \~80% of the equity risk. That will pull him back under the 150 limit while keeping the fund look-through intact. *(Currently building a python quant terminal called QuantForgeTerminal specifically to solve these exact custodian/API data-limit bottlenecks!)*

Jean_Jones_666

i'm pretty confident reddit is on average anti-AI, the 'subsidised' BS is getting boring, API usage is considered close to market realities, if not wildly profitable already (according to SemiAnalysis, check them out, they have the "facts" you pretend to care about)

iamwhiskerbiscuit

Truth API posts truths milliseconds faster than the public timeline. Only large firms using advanced trading algorithms could see any benefit whatsoever. But you come across as someone who is profoundly full of shit with no moral compass. So by all means, go for it!

mbangkok198_

To be fair in agentic tasks most of software engineering world ended up waking up around April and going in fast/deep (that means Pro subscription for freelancers, and large token based API spend for companies) - this was aided by basically every development related blog and podcast basically saying "they are no longer crap, a revolution happened in the last six months" - and they were right - they are good enough now. A jump to $40B seems very feasible to me.

probably-ck

I used 1$ of tokens via API today. My maximum this week was 1,50$

idbedamned

Not sticky at all. Switching an API from an Anthropic model to a Chinese one in many cases might literally be one line of code. Most businesses implement it through OpenRouter exactly for that.

nicolas_06

As I understand Anthropic is profitable, barely but still. There isn't a 8000X usage. The personal subscription allow to get much more than you would get with API usage, all granted, but this isn't available for corporations.

probably-ck

I'm using AI a a lot via API and I can get a lot of stuff done with minimal amounts of money. Right now, my fav model for single tasks is Luna. If GPT would get more expensive, I'd switch to Gemini 3.7 Flash. My own consumer behaviour is making it difficult for all these companies which invested billions to train their models to get that money back.

GneissFrog

separate the two. subsidized plans from every provider whether it be anthopic, openai, etc, are money losers, while enterprise API usage is recouping losses when 'tokenmaxxing' was all the rage.

AMillionTimesISaid

they’ve made things pretty damn sticky though. between API keys for other services, true agents, Claude Tag, it’s hard to pull back.

StonkGoUp

This Truth Social API service is blatant corruption and they aren’t even trying to hide it. Pretty crazy times we live in

_thispageleftblank

API pricing is obscenely inflated, so you can’t make this comparison

lembrar_de_mim

One thing worth not ignoring is that up until now the Chinese models have been pretty much ignored. Starting this year and specially in the last 3 months things have changed dramatically. Chinese open source models are now as good as Anthropic’s at a much lower cost. The growth path is actually showing signs of reversal now with a lot of Fortune 500 companies now leaving Anthropic and moving to Chinese open source models. So expecting the same level of growth now compared to when Anthropic was pretty much the coolest kid in town is what is unrealistic. Me and at my business we only use Anthropic right now through their subscription and that’s because it’s heavily subsidized. For API (where in theory they turn a profit) we haven’t touched any American model in the last 6 months. That changed a week ago purely because OpenAI slashed their API prices by 80%, which puts them in a somewhat competitive place again (but at the cost of likely making no money or even losing money on that API). So yeah, expecting 10x growth now that their main product is being offered for free by the Chinese, is what’s unrealistic.

_Doomer_Wojack_

I think I am going to slowly move away from Claude and use deepseek or some open source AI model API while using Hermes AI for agents I want full autonomy to do whatever I want 😈😇

Bekabam

F10 companies are not going to host open source models. They're going to negotiate better API costs. Currently working at an F5, and previously at another F10. Never seen what you're talking about, at scale. Individual teams can do what they want but the enterprise is not going that way.

das_war_ein_Befehl

With open sourced models and the private ones on API pricing, I’ve been able to cut down on agencies for managing various tools to a tune of 10k a month. Larger companies struggle to use these tools for their own reasons but I see small businesses adopt them really quickly

ThetaEdgeHQ

The thing that will bite you is that iv30 minus iv365 is not really the number your structure cares about. On a diagonal you are short the near leg and long the far leg, so your edge lives in the term structure slope, not the level. Ranking on iv30 minus iv365 treats a name where the front is 55 and the back is 50 the same as one where the front is 30 and the back is 25, but those behave nothing alike once the front starts decaying. What you actually want to rank on is front IV percentile high while back IV percentile low, or the front over back ratio, because that is when the leg you are selling is rich relative to the leg you are financing it with. The "1y iv basically equals 2y iv" assumption someone made above is exactly the thing that kills this screen, since the whole trade is a bet on the two being different. Two practical gaps in most screeners for this specific build: The earnings filter almost never maps the earnings date to a real expiration. Most tools flag "earnings this month," but you need to know whether the print lands before your 27 to 35 DTE short leg expires, not before the calendar month ends. Make sure it keys off days to earnings versus days to your short expiry, otherwise it will pass names that still have a print inside your short cycle. A whole market daily scan with per leg delta plus term structure is really an ORATS or Market Chameleon job. ORATS has the term structure and earnings data through the API if you are willing to compute the front over back ratio yourself, Market Chameleon has IV term structure and an earnings screen in the UI. oquants at ~80 a month works too. Koyfin and TradingView will not do options chain level IV term structure screening, so do not spend time trying to bend them into it.

A few hundred k on my side personally, although the range could be a bit wide, (very) lowend of 100k easily. I got it to do a few different things: - Automates major admin, along with the corresponding material used to enforce it. Used to take an hour or so for every 5 submissions, now it takes about 10 minutes. Has been zero dropoff in quality as it's all trained on data from when I did it by hand. - setup scanners for insights and news relevant to my target market, then takes the best 3 (I created scoring logic for what dictates best) and creates content for socials on that. It's trained on my tone of voice and I created an AI detection document for content that it has to get through before it comes to me. The difference between my writing and the output from it are miniscule. - setup scanners to collate leads from multiple sources once a week, grade them, pull 2-3 most relevant contacts for each lead + their contact info from zoom and puts it into a structured Excel for me and my team for outbound. - automate collateral generation, open Claude, run it, fill out some boxes from notes we already have from the project, then creates a gamma to be shared on socials. Again, trained off of previously hand created collateral with precreated themes so there's next to no difference between me doing it and Claude doing it. I've done all this with a Pro account and about $50 in API credits (of which I still have 25ish). The first one alone gives me and the team back about 10-12 hours a week. The rest combined probably another 10. It's enabled all of us to take of significantly more work than before with no decrease in quality and still gives us a better work life balance.

backtest_ai

You can do something similar with oquants they have screener where you can construct columns of iv30 minus iv365 (or divided by). For all intents and purposes 1y iv = 2y iv. Alternatively you can buy orats API and do the calculation yourself.

seinberg

This is a false dichotomy. What if you had a model that was just as good but cost 1/10 or 1/100 the price per token? Because we're already very close to that point. 5.6 Sol is absolutely better than Opus, already, and much more token efficient. I use both - as well as Chinese models - extensively. Once your personal subsidized plan starts being charged API token prices per token, you'll certainly change your tune. This is what enterprises are doing now: do we pay $100m for Claude, codex for $50m, Meta for $10m, or host our own open weights model for $1m?

mistervanilla

> That’s because you sell to startups that don’t care about actual data retention and soc2 compliance. Enterprise plans (that legal and audit will actually approve) aren’t subsidized - they’re all api token pricing, which is why we’re all moving to hosting the open source models on our own cloud instances. You're right, but for the wrong reason. Nobody, outside some very specific teams and organization, is going to fail their ISO 27001/SOC 2 audit because they're using Claude Teams instead of Enterprise. The reason startups use Claude Teams and established organizations don't, is because it maxes out at 150 seats, so above that organizations imply have to use API pricing. We've moved fully to spec driven development using Claude Teams and I see the token spend going through the roof in the last couple of months, and still rising. Every month I map the tokens spent to the API pricing and last month the price would have literally been 10x of what we are paying now, if we had to pay API prices. That's not to say that cost right now would be prohibitive, from a productivity perspective an argument could be made that it is worth it (although we strong differences in how effective people can use AI). Still, the potential cash out for a smaller organization is absolutely significant and is in the order of magnitude of your regular cloud bill for sure. So while we're using all the tokens we can while they're so heavily subsidized, I'm definitely looking towards an exit strategy towards cheaper models for when the foundation model providers stop buying the market.

Current-Function-729

Do poor people even use IB? I got the impression they’re the least poor person broker that isn’t one of the “connect your Bloomberg terminal or API client” ones.

Minimonium

They surely don't make money from subscriptions and API costs are getting very quickly eaten globally by Chinese models. Internal US market for main token consumers is just a few millions and it's just not enough to scale. Globally they cannot compete because they must maintain ridiculous margins in a hardware business that is historically extremely low margin and highly competitive. Economically they're doomed.

BabyWrinkles

You say that, but at the enterprise level getting buy-in to rebuild the scaffolding that’s being built around these AI platforms is not going to be point and click. A lot of these companies aren’t just unleashing the desktop client on their employees, they’re incorporating API calls in to custom built workflows. Is it the right approach? Probably not, but it’s what they’re doing. I’d just caution against “there’s no lock-in with AI” because there absolutely is. Sauce: was a technical product manager at a large enterprise and helped lead the selection and implementation of claude in early/mid 2025. Was

itmightgetloud_

Who cares. Anthropic is all about API usage for Enterprise which makes more than 90% of their revenue 

davl3232

If you run the numbers, owning hardware for running ai models is stupid expensive, even if electricity was free and you didn't need cooling. API prices should be 10 times higher to account for this and there's no moat to justify being in the cloud compute business right now.

utt73

"Markets already move on Truth Social posts ... As adoption grows, we expect Truth API to become a meaningful, ongoing source of revenue for the company.” — TMTG's interim CEO Kevin McGurn On April 9, 2025, Wall Street's main indexes turned sharply higher after Trump said in a Truth Social post that he would pause many of his new tariffs for 90 days.

FullOf_Bad_Ideas

Great thought. LLM API outages do happen, but considering the supposed lack of capacity, rarely. I assume they forego training/derisking to dedicate more resources to inference and hide it this way. Or it's all lies and LLM APIs would have no capacity constrains if they priced them right, to match the capacity they had. But if people had to pay those prices, they'd barely use those models. So, I think they want to addict people and companies to the models and in the meantime raise money based on that discounted income to cover the costs.

FullOf_Bad_Ideas

And those limits are very generous, you can spend through $100 of tokens in a day, while paying $5 for it through subscription. If they would be capacity constrained, your usage limits would be worth $5 of API use.

TibbersGoneWild

its probably worth it, cause all you gotta do to make money is reverse him.. even 1000x cheaper than your president's Truth API access.

SnooFloofs641

Fair enough. Tbf the OpenAI subscriptions are very subsidized (good for users, OpenAI still burns all of their money) so I don't think they get a lot of money from coding since most codex users have subscriptions, also this is a guess but a codex subscription is probably better value than some other Chinese provider in general since they tend to price their subscriptions closer to API pricing - this is from my experience with qwencloud and the old glm coding plan).

AI might be a bubble but the demand is completely real. even DeepSeek, the cheapest model on earth, is raising their API price compute demand is not going anywhere

wolfehr

For material information to be legally considered public, it has to be released through a broad, non-exclusionary channel, like a press release, an SEC filing, or a freely accessible post, and given time for the market to absorb it. Funneling market-moving policy through an API that costs $100k/month completely fails any standard of broad dissemination. It’s selling advance notice to a handful of elite funds. In my view, that data only becomes legally public once it hits the regular API that the broader investing public can actually access.

kilohe

You seem to think ChatGPT is a fancy chatbot for people. Most of their revenue will come from businesses and API use. You don’t seem to understand that part at all, or even realize it exists.

_bones__

So I'm guessing they just enjoy burning tens of billions of dollars a year, even though they don't have to? As well, API users wouldn't see ads, and they're the current revenue makers. They'd need to stop subsidizing those.

conoremc

Not sure why you were downvoted; people say it because it's true. u/ben_kWh can you provide an example of a proper price improvement fill for options on RH? Especially for spreads? Because I almost always get it with Schwab and never with RH. I've had a typo for a spread at 12:59pm and RH filled it at 300% loss without warning me EVEN THOUGH their own API provides the points in the bid/ask spread they consider "high fill" likelihood. As long as it's legally within the slow and not actually correct bid/ask spread for lower liquidity strike prices, you're fucked. Their money is purely made on spreads and PFOF numbers in the billions, so I'm skeptical when others assert otherwise despite all the evidence we have on the forums as to how much RH sucks at this.

\> (The lawsuit) targets “Truth API”, a paid data feed launched on 1 August by the Trump Media & Technology Group. The service gives paying subscribers faster access than the general public to posts from 10 of the platform’s highest-profile accounts, including Trump’s own account, as well as those of the vice-president, JD Vance; press secretary, Karoline Leavitt; and other senior officials. Subscribers pay $100,000 a month, or $60,000 a month for a three-year commitment. Wild

Every decent exchange has an API that you/ai can use to make trades/watch prices.

wolfehr

> Why do you think your broker(s), platforms, high frequency trading firms etc want to colocate their servers in the same data center as an exchange’s matching engine? So their trades on public information execute milliseconds faster than everyone else. I think this is just evidence that milliseconds matter, and selling faster access to the Truth Social API is giving the buyers an unfair advantage by using information that isn’t public yet.

flicter22

The real trade here is that $DJT has essentially become a news-speed play rather than a media company. Firms paying $100k/month for API access to Truth Social posts are basically paying for a faster news feed on presidential statements that move markets. It's wild — you can watch $DJT tick live on MarketCast and the moves on any Trump post are completely divorced from fundamentals. Pure sentiment ticker.

softDisk-60

Shouldn't these firms be immediately sued for insider trading? I mean that's the entire premise of the API, right? How much money can one make by suing those companies?

jj7878

API access to information that could swing the market, before anyone gets it. It's literally in the article "faster access". HFT algorithms can execute trades in nanoseconds. Therefore even with algorithm/infrastructure parity, any firm that doesn't pay for this is behind their competitors by a wide margin. This prompts them all to pay the president directly to stay competitive in the market. Insider trading, even if sold to the highest bidder is still illegal. Then naturally retail who already couldn't compete with the HFT algorithms is left further behind.

Echo-Possible

They can't run frontier models themselves. Frontier models require massive data center compute clusters only available in the cloud. You can't run multi trillion parameter models locally. So they will be paying cloud hyperscalars for tokens as a service through an API. All open source does is shift the profits from the AI frontier labs to the cloud hyperscalars. Whoever owns the compute still benefits. Same old cloud story that's been going on for 20 years now.

chaotic910

The AI market doesn’t align that much with what actually happened during dotcom. The issue with dotcom was that literally anyone with a half baked idea and an inkling of building a website could get millions in VC money. That hasn’t happened to nearly the same degree as AI, it’s fairly consolidated considering even off-shoot or doomed to fail companies use the API of a large model. The large corporations that fund these AI companies will continue to do so. Sure, they aren’t commercially profitable, but some FAANG or FAANG-adjacent company will want the models to be available in perpetuity. We’re more likely to see a large market shift, and that’s only if someone develops a major breakthrough and isn’t absorbed by a larger corp.

"App you get is API access, if companies want to pay for that, so be it, how’s that unethical." Because he is the goddamn president. What is so hard to comprehend that the presisdent should not give priority access to actions our country is taking for what is essentially a bribe?

PhoenixProtocol

I don’t know, I’m European, my feeble European mind can’t comprehend in the first place why you guys like him so much, but he never lied about saying he’d run the US likes his business. All of that aside, he’s a business man, not a politician. I’m not defending anyone, just an unbiased bystander that happens to work in this space, and it happened under any presidency, yet with Trump there’s vocal outcry for for all the things that might look bad at first optics. App you get is API access, if companies want to pay for that, so be it, how’s that unethical. He/no one forces u to, and you could scrape truth social any time and trade right as a new post appears, all you do is lose some milliseconds as the web page has to render the post, you’d still be faster than any other retail investor.

PhoenixProtocol

I don’t know how to ELI5, it’s just how data works. Everyone gets the same public post. What you’re really buying is a shorter wire, if you will. It’s the same as paying for a faster internet, it doesn’t give you any secret info or whatever, it just gives you quicker delivery of public information. Basically see it as low latency, low ping. An app or webpage like truth social was never designed to be as fast as possible to delivery media, it’s just not the medium. Truth soCal runs on a modified version of Mastodon which supports a server-side event stream, essentially a live feed the backend can push out continuously. Truth API payrs tap into that stream directly through a WebSocket based push feed, receiving structured JSON data, machine readable and algorithmically processable, within milliseconds of a post appearing on the platform’s servers. If you were to do something with an app or page, it will take a few (m)seconds longer to get everything sorted.

Did you run the numbers or are you just talking like... generally out of your ass? The objections are not that serious (radiators and repairs), those things are going to be like 5% of the total cost. A land Vera Rubin AI factory is $50-60 billion / gigawatt. Besides power and politics, two things you might not have considered: 1. Time - Revenue per gigawatt is worth $48 billion per year on Blackwell (currently based on the Google deal), $100 billion per year in API revenue, likely to be double that for Rubin. Remember that terrestrial DCs take 2-4 years to build, if you can even save 1 year that's already worth the whole price of the DC. 2. Construction - Starmind busses come prefab on an assembly line, you skip all the land validation, architectural engineering that goes into each site. You end up with a low cost, optimized process and you're not going to get sued by a contractor. 3. Launches are to subsidize SpaceX's you know, space business, and in a sense can be considered free. SpaceX is going to scale out to build 10k Starships as soon as possible, and they need a guaranteed massive customer. Even if launches end up costing more than terrestrial (which it won't once you consider #1 and #2), it can result in massive economy of scale gain for the actual space business, which will be transformative for the company regardless.

AI: Rather than giving subscribers access to posts hours in advance, the service gives automated trading algorithms **millisecond-level (or multi-second) speed priority**. Paid API connections receive the data package directly into their systems before the post propagates across the standard Truth Social web app, mobile push notification network, or general internet scrapers. Blatant insider trading, but I find it really concerning that hedge funds or whoever is paying for this have markets gamed out to this extent, and it has already and will continue to get worse with ai. Its where ai was first used and trained, when everyone thought it was just a MSFT commercial with Common. Maybe even more concerning that these companies have fiduciary duty. CEO’s need to make the call on if the risk to shareholders - it is being sold by the president, after all - is worth the benefit to shareholders. Whether it is right or wrong morally needs thrown aside. Trump and his goon squad’s continued willingness to break the law and sell corporations the benefit is not only encouraging, but nearly forcing corporations to take part, thereby normalizing, step by step, our decent into and more directly enforced oligarchy.

Built my own. Includes options chain data, equities and market news. I can manually enter, import or copy/paste screenshot of the trade from the broker. I could wire it to connect directly to my broker, but not ready for that just yet and some brokers don't have an API or it's not reliable. There are a couple. Might use SnapTrade down the road to handle the connection. I'm still tweaking it frequently to get it exactly where I want. I'd be open to a few beta users if anyone interested. https://preview.redd.it/b5luczmlitih1.jpeg?width=1664&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=3e4f3e8c713fdeaa6298a683a4194ee8bde05f39

BREAKING NEWS: more than 10 firms have agreed to pay the 100,000 bribes for Troof Social API access.

BellacosePlayer

Ai companies provide cheap subs for regular folks for the same reason Winrar doesn't force you to buy it. They want you used to it so you ask for it at work, which will then pay for bulk subscriptions or API pricing.

"JUST IN: TACO Media reveals 10+ customers have signed up for Truth API, paying up to $100,000 per month for faster access to Truth Social posts."

What’s the point of building something like this when you can get an API to a service that already has these numbers? The difficulty is never the numbers, it’s the story behind the numbers.

mneymaker

Some people with the Truth API got the memo already and it shows QQQ calls back in play, fuck SPY

Midget_Molester10

people with the truth social API got the pre release for the perimeters of the Iran deal.

The distillation argument isn’t really valid. Sure it happens but why would you think Anthropic isn’t doing exactly the same? Either way the reality is that inference providers are offering strong models for next to nothing (eg DSv4 Flash). They have no real incentive to subsidise that use. OpenAI just slashed their API pricing by a huge amount due to the competition.

DJT should've charged way more than 100k for API access they don't understand who they are selling to.

DJT next quarter earnings after the API: 30B revenue

You're on the cheapo consumer level. Big corporate AI is based on API usage. I could blow $60 easily on a single basic prompt.

Says who? Cut back on training cost is fucking funny. They have to post train from model drift. Also “likely” from who ? Who reported GAAP standards to show that? The company leaked that in the 2 months they were profitable where they didn’t include any cost from data centers and annualized API revenue that fluctuates every month

Econmajorhere

Are you regarded? Dude is selling fast API access to his own social platform to make it easier for funds to beat plebs like you to the market. Yes, the world is conspiring to weaken the US for no reason at all. We never tried to meddle in their affairs, install loyal leaders in their “democracies”, take their resources, bind them to restrictive trade deals, encourage their neighbors to attack them, sell their invaders weapons, look the other way when said invaders used chemical weapons against civilians….Iranians just hate US because they are mean bullies and a gold plated elderly child is just the strongman we need to fight back.

SpyBagholder

They claimed to be profitable for 2 months now that API revenues are down from competitors they are unprofitable. They also claimed that because they didn’t have to pay 2 months of data center usage from spaceX So profitable if you don’t include your cost.

Real story, my company has been using GPT 5.4 API when it comes out, management fainted when they receive the monthly bill. They drag everyone using the room and ask why do we need the frontier stuff? (interestingly the team who set this up knows that it is a POC, POC meant to do what we can do or waht we cannot do right?) Then we switch to Deepseek overnight with 1/10 of the AI token cost. We don't really need local AI, hyscaler has been hosting Chinese model long time ago and they make huge profit with it. Deepseek runs much more efficiently and require less GPU compared to frontier. Management Win, Hyperscaler Win, OpenAI Lose in this case.
