China's DeepSeek AI model has received official praise from the government, being viewed as a success that lowers AI development costs. Despite its acclaim, the Chinese government asserts that DeepSeek will not compete with leading American firms such as OpenAI and Google DeepMind. Instead, the focus is on collaboration and complementing existing technologies. The company's founder gained notable attention at a recent symposium with Xi Jinping, indicating a significant shift in China's tech landscape amid previous industry crackdowns.
"As AI continues to reshape industries and everyday life of humanity, DeepSeek complements, rather than competes against, existing AI leaders like OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google DeepMind," Beijing's embassy in Washington said.
DeepSeek has continued to raise its profile in Beijing since its reportedly low-cost AI model stunned the tech world. It's quickly become a star at home.
The Chinese embassy's statement on Monday praised the company as a success, saying it 'significantly lowered AI development costs.'
Google DeepMind's CEO said that the Chinese model is impressive but showed 'no real new scientific advance' toward the true goal among AI leaders - reaching artificial general intelligence.
