With its "R1" model, the Chinese AI start-up sensation has proven that it is possible to achieve comparable performance with far fewer resources than competing products such as OpenAI's ChatGPT or Meta's Llama. This development is not only driving technological progress but is also changing the discussion about the democratization and cost structure of AI.

Keycloak is an open-source platform for identity and access management (IAM).
