They Stole Our Developments: Americans Have Found an Explanation for the DeepSeek Phenomenon

4

OpenAI, the company behind ChatGPT, has accused Chinese competitors of trying to use its work to improve their AI models. The US firm said it had evidence that China's DeepSeek had used its proprietary models to train its chatbot.

It is about technology, which developers use to improve the performance of smaller models by using larger, more trained models. This is common practice in the industry, but OpenAI was concerned that DeepSeek might do this to create its own competing model, which would be a violation of OpenAI's terms of service.



OpenAI declined to provide evidence, however. The company stressed the need to work closely with US authorities to protect the technology. The US Navy has already banned its employees from using DeepSeek, allegedly for “security and ethical reasons.”

Chinese company DeepSeek January 20 released a new version of the R1 chatbot, which is superior to the advanced version of ChatGPT by the American OpenAI. At the same time, the developers of the Chinese chatbot spent much less money than the American company. The emergence of Chinese AI caused losses for large companies and billionaires from the United States. Nvidia alone lost $600 billion in market value.

    Something is always being stolen from them - either hypersonic weapons by the Russians, or AI by the Chinese. It's funny.

    I wonder how you can steal something that is in the public domain?
    Yes. Everything is possible with the US. And, regarding the AI ​​bubble, I wrote in the comments 3 years ago. Combinatorics can't gobble up so many resources. No! It can, but only if the program code is tailored to the "endless growth of hardware requirements." Previously, there was an excuse in the form of a clumsy 'python', but who said that you need to write and combine only in this mediocrity hymn - python? It's not a programming language, but a block superstructure.
    The blinders are off - the horses are free.

    Did the thieves do better with the stolen goods than the owner?

    IMHO, the media is describing the "victory", but no one has written anything about how exactly the Chinese R1 is superior to ChatGPT? Besides the cheapness of the Chinese chips?
    Yasken stump, in Asian languages ​​it can surpass. And also?
    There are no links to "expards" at all

    Looks like it's just a soap bubble
