DeepSeek Reports Theoretical 545% Profit Margin on AI Models

Chinese AI startup DeepSeek has disclosed that its V3 and R1 models achieved a theoretical cost-profit ratio of up to 545% per day. This calculation is based on a 24-hour period at the end of February, where the daily inference cost was approximately $87,072, against a theoretical daily revenue of $562,027. The company attributes this efficiency to innovations that optimize data processing and manage latency.
