- A quoted remark attributed to DeepSeek founder Liang Wenfeng says 3D generation, video generation, and world models are not on the company’s main path.
- The post argues that whether those areas matter depends on how you define intelligence.
- It adds that if intelligence includes holodecks or robots, then a plain LLM is not enough, and says Liang’s stance is interesting because it treats restraint as a strategy.
