DeepSeek AI implications

My thoughts on the Deepseek AI saga:

1.       The DeepSeek AI model transforms our perspective on large language models, challenging conventional methods employed in their development.

2.       One of its significant innovations is its ability to train large language models using fewer hardware accelerators, which reduces costs. significantly

3.       However, deploying the DeepSeek AI model raises crucial concerns about cybersecurity, as we don’t know how the model is trained.

4.       The U.S. and China are in a competitive race for AI dominance, with substantial implications for the global landscape.

Implications:

1.       The capability to develop large language models at a reduced cost creates opportunities for smaller, innovative AI startups.

2.       The availability of low-cost AI LLMs would foster the global adoption of AI across various sectors. This affordability would enhance accessibility for smaller organizations and developers who may lack extensive resources.

3.       Tech companies like AWS and Microsoft are swiftly deploying the DeepSeek AI model to meet demand and maintain a competitive edge. Other tech companies may follow the lead of AWS, Google and Microsoft.

4.       Chip manufacturers such as NVIDIA may face significant pressure to reduce the prices of their GPUs.

5.       Technology companies like OpenAI and Anthropic need to develop cost-efficient models to stay competitive against the rising tide of Chinese AI startups.
