Ex-OpenAI researcher mocks 'DeepSeek is just distillation' claims with bike-fall meme
suchenzang · x · 2026-10-19
Former OpenAI researcher suchenzang uses the classic bike-fall meme and heavy sarcasm to mock the knee-jerk take that every DeepSeek release "must be distillation." She skewers the contradiction: if handing money to frontier labs makes a "Temu frontier" model that easily, then the "winner-takes-all frontier AI" business narrative collapses. Her jabs highlight the industry's incoherent double narrative about distillation and moats.
