I wonder where they got 50… llama405 cost like 60M, which puts deepseek at closer to 10x…





is llama405 a distilled model like DeepSeek or a trained frontier model? I honestly ask because I haven't researched but that's important to know before one compares.

Deepseek isn’t a distilled model (and neither is llama405), both are pre trained foundation models.

Deepseek has distilled deepseek R1 into a couple of smaller open source models, but neither R1 or v3 are distilled themselves.
