Adding DeepSeek R1 to our chart showing AI efficiency gains over time. Y axis ~= performance, X axis ~= cost to run. Each research step forward lets us do more with less. The future of GPU demand remains a question of whether adoption or efficiency increases faster.

Curious to see if it becomes harder to rent a cluster now that anyone can grab one and run their own private copy of DeepSeek on it.

DeepSeek's R1 has made it WAY harder to rent a cheap Nvidia H100 GPU. Hasn't been this hard to get a cheap H100 since early 2024. Curious how much open-source model usage is cannibalizing OpenAI/Anthropic's utilization vs growing the pie though.

From a recent o3-mini chain of thought summary: "I'm showcasing the last flourishing self-confidence moment before a motivational dip in self-esteem, revealing a more nuanced and mature approach to the concept."

Seeing so many posts about Washington DC home listings EXPLODING but there is no context for how it differs from any random day in the past. Zillow new listing data as of December shows nothing interesting happening in DC, maybe the January update will show something...

I've been seeing this chart on % of consumer spending from the top 10% by income reaching 50%. Anyone know how they came up with this number? BLS Consumer Expenditure Survey suggests it's far less, with the top 20% being less than 40% (and top 10% being around 23%).

A quick demo of the chart catalog feature on the 3Fourteen Research client site. Along with archives of every report we have ever written, every chart we have ever featured in our research is searchable and available with a link back to the report it was originally featured in on

Interesting random multimodal AI model limitation, no model I have tried so far can read the Fed dot plot chart properly and turn it into structured data (counts by level by year, say). I tried o3-pro, gemini 2.5, claude opus 4. Weird right?

AI adoption by U.S. businesses taking off Based on Fernando Vidal work, daily tokens generated to ~4X by the end of 2026. So much time spent thinking about market's downside risk (rightfully) but the potential productivity boom could/should start to show up in S&P 500 results soon.
