The emergence of Chinese company DeepSeek has sparked concerns in the U.S. regarding its competitive edge in technology. Despite being praised for its innovative AI model developed with fewer resources than expected, suspicions arose when allegations emerged that it may have utilized technology from OpenAI's ChatGPT. This situation exemplifies a broader trend, where Chinese firms blend genuine innovation with practices of copying existing technologies. Experts note that China now presents a dual challenge—capable of creating and replicating technology—shifting the narrative surrounding its role in the global tech landscape.
DeepSeek has shaken the myth of the invincibility of U.S. high technology, showcasing China’s ability to combine innovation with opportunistic practices.
Now China can both innovate and copy, and benefit from both, demonstrating a new capability in the tech sector that challenges the old narratives.
