🔥 BREAKING

A leaked four-hour investor call reveals DeepSeek founder Liang Wenfeng's boldest public comments yet: Nvidia's CUDA software moat — the thing that's locked developers in for a decade — is eroding fast, partly because AI can now write the code to replicate it. He claims Huawei's newest chips can already fully substitute Nvidia's best at a lower price.

⚡️ Why it matters: this is the founder who already rattled markets once with DeepSeek, now targeting the one argument that's kept Nvidia's stock near all-time highs — that no one can leave. The claims are unverified, and Huawei chips reportedly still need four cards to match one Nvidia GB300. But even a partly-true version reshapes how every company thinks about chip dependency.

🔎 Quick AI Highlights

⏰ DeepSeek's Own Deadline Hits Today — The API migration cutoff for deepseek-chat and deepseek-reasoner lands at 15:59 UTC today. Developers report a hidden trap in the migration path that can silently break requests if followed incorrectly.

📊 AI Is Helping, Not Replacing — A large-scale study using millions of de-identified AI interactions found workers are largely using AI to assist with existing tasks rather than being replaced by it — though the report flags that a meaningful share of that usage is shallow, low-value work.

🔓 A New Open Rival to Claude Science — OpenScience, a new Apache-2.0, model-agnostic research workbench, launched this week as an open alternative to Anthropic's Claude Science — letting researchers route the same workflow through Claude, GPT, Gemini, or DeepSeek instead of being locked to one.
