How China\u2019s New Open Source AI Model DeepSeek Is Threatening U.S. Dominance<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

‘A little-known AI lab out of China has ignited panic throughout Silicon Valley after releasing AI models that can outperform America\u2019s best despite being built more cheaply and with less-powerful chips. DeepSeek, as the lab is called, unveiled a free, open-source large-language model in late December that it says took only two months and less than $6 million to build. The new developments have raised alarms on whether America\u2019s global lead in artificial intelligence is shrinking and called into question big tech\u2019s massive spend on building AI models and data centers.<\/strong> In a set of third-party benchmark tests, DeepSeek\u2019s model outperformed Meta\u2019s Llama 3.1, OpenAI\u2019s GPT-4o and Anthropic\u2019s Claude Sonnet 3.5 in accuracy ranging from complex problem-solving to math and coding.’<\/p>\n\n\n\n
