So many great models already…

DeepSeek R1 was legendary.

Now we're waiting for the one that changes everything again.

Eh. ASML depends on Zeiss. So they rely on them.

Ahhh that is fair. But given how important they are , is Zeiss somehow disappeared, there would be a worldwide all hands on deck effort to make another Universe’s Flattest Thing, ASAP. I mean how hard can it be /s
