The Impact on Nvidia's GPU Monopoly

Nvidia's dominance in the AI hardware market is threatened by the ability of DeepSeek's R1 model to run efficiently on consumer-grade hardware like Apple's M2 Ultra chips.

This demonstrates that cutting-edge AI models can be deployed on less expensive and more accessible hardware, potentially reducing the reliance on Nvidia's high-priced GPUs. This could lead to a significant shift in the AI hardware market and impact Nvidia's profitability.
