DeepSeek satire taken seriously: author forced to clarify it was a joke
danshipper · x · 2026-09-13
danshipper quips "finally, I'm an author" while sharing that a DeepSeek satire piece was attacked by supposedly serious, "concerned" commentators — the author had to clarify it was a joke. The punchline was that DeepSeek had supposedly fallen behind, and that there's no reason to trust Chinese AI firms; the episode mocks how readily talking heads take obvious jokes at face value.
