The AI landscape is undergoing a fundamental shift. For years, bigger models and massive compute power were seen as the ultimate path to intelligence. But now, models like DeepSeek-R1 are proving that efficiency, reasoning, and adaptability matter just as much—if not more—than raw scale.
In this episode, we explore how DeepSeek-R1 is redefining AI development by prioritizing smarter training techniques, reinforcement learning, and optimized architectures. We discuss what this shift means for businesses, the changing economics of AI, and how Agentic AI will evolve through intelligent orchestration. As AI moves toward self-directed optimization, the organizations that embrace efficiency, domain specialization, and sustainable AI strategies will lead the next wave of innovation.
