This sounds a lot like fingerprinting under the false flag of making user experience better.

But was the GPU OK? That’s gold right there.

Speech to Text -> NLU -> Ordered summarized -> human for review (we hope?) -> order placed. They are using these to reduce the labor demand on the human portion, and I presume at some point the “to human for review” will just go away, if they get the accuracy dialed in.

The shitty part is, it’s not like they are saving much money, since those jobs pay shit anyways. I have to wonder what the ROI is on replacing the electronics and hooking all that up, plus the R&D that went into the system itself, is.

Those numbers are so not reality. $2K/month is nowhere near the payment for the first one.

DeepSeek never said it was permanent in their pricing materials, the article writer did. They are just taking the current expiration date off an existing discount. It’s absolutely a shot across the bow at Claude, OpenAI, et al., but the author was click-baiting, as is tradition.

This is good news. Better news would be dropping the bill, but at least this won’t hurt FOSS.
