I think the field of artificial intelligence is also turning into a kind of strategic warfare. As you know, a Chinese company launched one of its AI language models (DeepSeek) today. And this model attracted a lot of attention. China launched DeepSeek against the US's OpenAI. This has created a serious competition. “DeepSeek-R1, the latest in a series of models developed with few chips and low cost, challenges the dominance of giant players like OpenAI, Google and Meta. ”I think that in the future, companies and countries may engage in more global competition in the field of artificial intelligence.
From now on, technological competition will be as important as global, economic, political, and military competition between countries and nations, and it seems that artificial intelligence competition will take the lead.
What do you think about this issue?
It’s just over a week since DeepseekR1 dropped, and people are shocked by its potential.
Dear Tanuj Saini
It certainly is. Depseek is an important example of how the center of AI is shifting from the USA to China. At least for now.
True!! Concerned about our own country 🫠, hopefully preparations are there!!
Ha ha ha :)
All countries now have to invest in artificial intelligence. I think a serious competition has started. For now, the USA and China are leading this competition. I don't know what will happen in the future.
China wows the world with new model
"A Chinese-built large language model called DeepSeek-R1 has emerged as a major competitor to American-built models like OpenAI’s o1. The US stock market declined dramatically on Monday in reaction to the Chinese startup’s gains on AI reasoning. DeepSeek-R1 is wowing scientists for being ‘open-weight’, meaning researchers can study and build on the algorithm, and for being cheap to access. Its predecessor DeepSeek V3, released last month, trained on a shoestring budget of around US$6 million — compared to the estimated $60 million for Meta’s Llama 3.1 405B, which used 11 times the computing resources..."

Experts urge caution over use of Chinese AI DeepSeek
UK officials say they are monitoring any national security threat to data from the new AI...
"Some observers urge caution about sharing private data with DeepSeek, which stores the personal information it collects from users on servers in China. And they note that the system appears to be intermittently incapable of providing information on topics that are deemed sensitive by the country’s government..."

How China built a breakthrough AI
"Chinese technology start-up DeepSeek has taken the tech world by storm with the release of two large language models (LLMs) — R1 and the image generator Janus-Pro-7B — that rival industry-leading models built in the United States. But the emergence of a frontrunner out of China is no surprise to observers within the country, who cite strong government support, huge venture-capital investment and a significant population of researchers in the field. Perhaps most remarkable, say scientists, is that the work was done amid US export controls that have blocked China’s access to advanced AI computing chips since 2022 — a restriction that seems to have prompted impressive efficiency-boosting innovations."

Secrets of DeepSeek revealed
DeepSeek-R1, a cheap and powerful artificial intelligence (AI) ‘reasoning’ model that sent the US stock market spiralling after it was released by a Chinese firm in January, cost just US$300,000 to train. That’s one of the revelations in a new paper from the DeepSeek team — making R1 the first major LLM to undergo the peer-review process...
