OpenAI's Will Depue claims "conclusive forensic evidence" that DeepSeek, Moonshot, MiniMax and Ant Group built their newest models (DeepSeek-V4, Kimi K3, MiniMax-M3, Ling-3.1, etc.) on NVIDIA Blackwell-class B200/B300 and GB200/GB300 chips — GPUs that require US export licenses, none reported. Table data allegedly read from published weights. OpenAI researcher roon called it "really bad." Poster mocks OpenAI researchers as "mask off" to protect equity. Unverified but explosive if true.
