OpenAI says DeepSeek ‘inappropriately’ copied ChatGPT – but it’s facing copyright claims too

Live Mint  

Melbourne Melbourne, Feb 5 Until a few weeks ago, few people in the Western world had heard of a small Chinese artificial intelligence company known as DeepSeek. DeepSeek’s new offering is almost as powerful as rival company OpenAI’s most advanced AI model o1, but at a fraction of the cost. But even if DeepSeek copied – or, in scientific parlance, “distilled” – at least some of ChatGPT to build R1, it’s worth remembering that OpenAI also stands accused of disrespecting intellectual property while developing its models. This is what OpenAI claims DeepSeek has done: queried OpenAI’s o1 at a massive scale and used the observed outputs to train DeepSeek’s own, more efficient models. A series of lawsuits OpenAI’s terms of use explicitly state nobody may use its AI models to develop competing products.
