A prediction market on Manifold shows a low probability (4.01% YES) that DeepSeek lied about the GPU compute budget used to train v3. While the market consensus leans strongly against deception, the very existence of the question and the small but non-zero probability reflect residual uncertainty about DeepSeek's reported efficiency. If the claim were true, it could damage trust in DeepSeek's cost and performance assertions, affecting partnerships and future funding. Source: Manifold
