DeepSeek’s big question: Where does AI’s true value reside?
Live MintU.S. tech companies are used to some competition from China, but DeepSeek seems to be operating on another level. The given news that OpenAI is investigating whether DeepSeek trained its chatbot by repeatedly querying the U.S. company’s AI models to exfiltrate large volumes of data in a technical process called distillation. “I would say, personally, we have seen the Chinese today, this week establish themselves as first-rate software developers," Jared Spataro, chief marketing officer of Microsoft’s AI at Work group, told me. These factors could help big U.S. tech companies retain leadership in the upper end of the AI market—and most of the value created by AI—although make no mistake, they will face competition there as well. If such assumptions about ongoing demand for cutting-edge models are correct, DeepSeek’s shocking emergence could infuse the AI industry with innovation, help U.S. tech giants speed toward goals such as the development of artificial general intelligence, and expand their market.
