Didn't OpenCode CTO state they could replicate deepseek pricing on rented hardware? | ||

There's a difference between the Deepseek.com provider lunch pricing and the pricing every other provider is doing now. Right now DS4-Pro-0813 is available from multiple providers for $1.32/million input tokens[1]. It's pretty easy to work backwards from B200 and electricity prices and see this is profitable even without the heavy serving optimization these providers are doing[1.5]. The OpenCode CEO said: "inference is very profitable and probably a good opportunity to understand some basic business math"[2] and "the inference we do is already profitable and that's with some middlemen involved"[3] If at this point people don't believe inference can be profitable, and providers can turn the prices up and down to choose exactly how profitable they make it I don't know what to say.
