#deepseek #chipwar #openai China just built frontier AI that runs without a single NVIDIA chip — and DeepSeek V4 is now 90% cheaper than anything OpenAI offers. Within 72 hours, GPT 5.6 leaked. This is the sovereignty story Western media is missing. 🇨🇳 THE PRICE COLLAPSE DeepSeek V4 launched running natively on Huawei Ascend silicon. Cache-hit pricing is now 3.6 cents per million tokens — a tenfold collapse from last quarter, confirmed on DeepSeek's own pricing page. A Shanghai engineer ran a full week of agent workflows for 8 US cents. The same job on a premium American model would have cost at least ten times that. 🧠 THE VISION LAYER NOBODY IS COVERING DeepSeek's new visual reasoning system, co-authored with Tsinghua and Peking University, scored 66.9% on the DS Maze Navigation benchmark using just 90 KV cache entries per 800x800 image. Claude Sonnet 4.6 needed 870 entries for the same task — roughly 10x more memory. GPT 5.4 scored 50.6%. This is not just a language model. This i
