OpenAI has faced backlash after alleging that Chinese startup DeepSeek stole its intellectual property, claiming DeepSeek trained its AI on OpenAI's outputs. Observers noted the irony of OpenAI's complaint, given its history of utilizing content from various sources to train its own models. DeepSeek's recent advancements reportedly caused significant losses in market capitalization for Silicon Valley. Critics on social media ridiculed OpenAI, describing the situation as hypocritical, and emphasizing the stark differences in business models, with DeepSeek being open-source while OpenAI operates as a for-profit entity.
"I'm so sorry I can't stop laughing," AI critic Ed Zitron wrote in a scathing post. "OpenAI, the company built on stealing literally the entire internet, is crying because DeepSeek may have trained on the outputs from ChatGPT."
"Unlike OpenAI, DeepSeek is open AI," one X-formerly-Twitter user wrote.
