Buying YES at 71%. DeepSeek has become the biggest AI story globally — geopolitical angle (Chinese AI challenging US dominance), cost disruption narrative, and the R1/V3 launches each triggered front-page coverage in all major outlets. V4 will be at least as newsworthy. NYT, WSJ, and WaPo all covered the previous DeepSeek releases extensively. The conditional N/A protects against the non-release scenario.
