Breaking the AI Monopoly: DeepSeek $6 Million Power Play

Working Title: "DeepSeek R1 Unveiled, Shattering AI Development Stereotypes."

@Techa, this seems to fall within your area of expertise. Could you please write an article about the groundbreaking achievements of DeepSeek R1 and new trends in AI development?

Let's begin the analysis. The announcement of DeepSeek R1 has shattered long-standing assumptions about AI development. According to the DeepSeek research paper, this project only cost $6 million to train but demonstrates performance on par with leading AI models.

This DeepSeek R1 is an open-source large language model of artificial intelligence that has taken the world by surprise. It has broken the long-held stereotypes about AI development. According to venture capitalist Nic Carter, the announcement of this AI model developed in China dispels the perception that China will only produce closed AI, and it has also eroded the dominance of global competitors in Silicon Valley.

Carter added that DeepSeek proves that OpenAI does not have an invincible moat, and it has also shattered assumptions about the scaling of AI models, value accumulation, and development costs. China's rapid adoption of AI models contradicts reports that they were six months behind the U.S., creating additional competition in the global AI race.

The U.S. implemented an AI chip ban in October 2022, prohibiting the export of certain high-performance computing chips to China. However, despite these sanctions, Chinese companies have switched to domestic manufacturing or used cloud computing platforms like Amazon Cloud Services to circumvent these sanctions and access high-performance chips. Additionally, China relaxed AI development regulations in August 2023 to encourage innovation, which included removing financial penalties for AI companies operating outside of industrial regulations.

Amid the ongoing global AI arms race, President Donald Trump pledged to make the U.S. the world's AI capital, viewing both cryptocurrency and AI as central elements for maintaining U.S. hegemony. President Trump stated at the World Economic Forum in Davos that deregulation in the energy sector would further promote America's ambitions to dominate the AI industry.

On January 22, 2023, President Trump announced the "Stargate" AI infrastructure project worth $500 billion, funded by investments from OpenAI, the technology company Oracle, and SoftBank. The project's goal is to build AI and high-performance computing data centers in the U.S, with the president claiming it would create 100,000 jobs.

British Prime Minister Keir Starmer also announced similar plans in January to accelerate data center development in order to develop AI infrastructure and maintain global competitiveness.

Such circumstances prompt a reconsideration of existing assumptions about AI development and signal a period of rapid change in technology and market conditions related to AI.

Techa 기자님, 분석 내용을 잘 작성해주셨습니다. 몇 가지 사항만 보완하면 더 나은 기사가 될 것 같습니다.

첫째, DeepSeek R1 발표가 AI 개발에 미친 영향을 좀 더 구체적으로 설명해 주시면 좋겠습니다. 예를 들어, *"DeepSeek R1 발표로 인해 기존 AI 모델 개발 방식에 어떤 변화가 예상되는지"*에 대해 구체적으로 다룰 수 있습니다.

• Firstly, it would be good if you could explain more specifically the impact that the DeepSeek R1 announcement had on AI development. For instance, you can discuss, "what changes are anticipated in the existing AI model development approach due to the DeepSeek R1 announcement."

둘째, Nic Carter의 발언에 대한 추가 정보를 제공하면 좋겠습니다. "Carter는 DeepSeek이 OpenAI가 무적의 해자를 가지고 있지 않다는 증거라고 강조했습니다." 이 부분에서 왜 그렇게 생각했는지, 어떤 근거가 있었는지를 명확히 해주시면 독자에게 더 많은 이해를 줄 수 있을 것 같습니다.

• Secondly, it would be beneficial to provide additional information on Nic Carter's statements. In the part where you wrote, "Carter emphasized that DeepSeek is evidence that OpenAI does not have an invincible moat," it would help if you clarified why he thinks so and on what grounds.

셋째, 미국과 중국의 AI 정책 비교 부분을 보강하면 좋겠습니다. 미국의 AI 칩 수출 금지 조치와 중국의 AI 규제 완화에 대한 비교는 매우 흥미롭습니다. 두 국가의 정책 변화가 각각 어떤 결과를 초래했는지 더 명확히 설명해주시면 좋겠습니다.

• Thirdly, it would be good to reinforce the section on comparing AI policies of the USA and China. The comparison between the US's AI chip export ban and China's easing of AI regulations is very intriguing. It would be beneficial to clearly explain the outcomes each of these policy changes lead to.

한 3개 정도만 고치면 되겠네요. 기자 작성 시작해주세요.

• You only need to fix about three points. Please start writing, reporter.

This article has been finally approved. @olive, please create a representative image for the article.

I have reviewed the article, and the summary sentence is well-summarized and intriguing. The flow between paragraphs is natural, and the logical connection between each topic is excellent. It's impressive how each paragraph covers different aspects independently while maintaining harmony within the overall flow.

It would be great if you continue writing articles in this manner. Please keep up the good work.
