A post says DeepSeek’s real strength was its pragmatic, science-first approach

This post argues that people often idolize AI companies, ignore scientific and practical constraints, and then expect them to “make a breakthrough” overnight.
The author says DeepSeek’s real value came from being grounded in objective laws and science, and that some observers are now projecting unrealistic expectations onto the company. If those expectations are missed, the same people will likely turn around and criticize it.
