Meta, Nvidia, and other tech giants react to DeepSeek's competitive, cost-efficient models that challenge established market players.

One of the more revealing things to come out of the chaos was the response to DeepSeek from Sam Altman, CEO of OpenAI, the company that makes ChatGPT. In a thread on X, Altman called the model “impressive” and said that it was “legit invigorating” to have a competitor:

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman is under fire for suggesting that artificial intelligence will upend societal norms after President Trump made a huge announcement on AI.

Elon Musk asked a judge to block OpenAI's attempt to transition from nonprofit to for-profit. It's not the first time he's feuded with CEO Sam Altman.

There's a new entrant in the Artificial Intelligence chatbot market from China. It is competing with giants like OpenAI, Gemini, ClaudeAI, etc. disrupting the American hegemony in AI-based generative chatbot models.

Altman and Musk were OpenAI’s founding co-chairs in 2015, but their relationship has devolved into name-calling and lawsuits.

Since then, Musk hasn’t hidden his anger with Altman and OpenAI. He’s currently suing the company over its decision to become a for-profit corporation, and he regularly trolls the company on X—the platform he bought for $44 billion back in 2022. All of which is why the past week has been hilarious.

With an actual open source model, China's AI leader just whupped America's AI leader. Can Sam Altman fight back?

OpenAI CEO and co-founder Sam Altman clapped back at two Democratic senators’ inquiry into his $1 million personal donation to President-elect Trump’s inaugural fund, quipping Friday

With DeepSeek R1 matching ChatGPT o1, the o3 release seems inevitable, but that’s because OpenAI already set it that way.

Have American tech companies completely misunderstood what they should do with Large Language Models? It certainly looks that way.
