I wasn't under the impression American AI was profitable either. I thought it was held up by VC funding and over valued stock. I may be wrong though. Haven't done a deep dive on it.
Okay, I literally didn't even post the comment yet and did the most shallow of dives. Open AI is not profitable. https://www.cnbc.com/2024/09/27/openai-sees-5-billion-loss-this-year-on-3point7-billion-in-revenue.html
deep seek you mean?

To the rich being overvalued and being profitable are indistinguishable.
I get your point, but I mean the business being profitable from an accounting perspective, not the stock being profitable from an investing perspective.
The CEO said on twitter that even their $200/month pro plan was losing money on every customer: https://techcrunch.com/2025/01/05/openai-is-losing-money-on-its-pricey-chatgpt-pro-plan-ceo-sam-altman-says/
I don't see how they would become profitable any time soon if their costs are that high. Maybe if they adapt the innovations of deepseek to their own model.
