Honestly with Bari Weiss
Can America Win the AI War with China?

DeepSeek is online. It is free. It is a very fast model. I would say it's the most fun model to speak with. It is more arbitrary and subjective and personality-rich than the other AI models. It's also open source, which means anyone can copy it. So there's no way of stopping it from spreading, even if you shut down that original website somehow.

So it's not as good as the best open AI products, but it is changing the world. And it's probably what a lot of the world is going to use.

Can America Win the AI War with China?

No, I was using it before the R1 update came out. But I'm in a lot of chat groups. And if there's something new in the world of AI, odds are I'm going to hear about it. So I was just playing around with it. And it was so much fun. I kept on going.

Well, it will take on any personality you tell it to, which is part of the fun. But the default is simply that it's charming. It's more poetic. It writes better fiction, probably, than the American models. It's just a whole different vibe, you could say.

Now, if you try to ask it questions about Chinese politics, Tiananmen Square, the Uyghurs, it either A, won't answer, or sometimes it starts to answer A, And then the cursor starts moving backwards and it erases whatever it wrote down. And a very literal act of Orwellian censorship.

That's mostly not true. So it may be the case that the final training cost was very, very low. But you incur a lot of other costs in building the model. For instance, the company had 150 people working full time trying to develop the model. And their salaries and all of the fixed costs of the enterprise are not included in that sum.

Now, it's still probably the case that their model is considerably cheaper. And some of that is that wages in China are lower. But they also had a number of innovations that just enabled the model to be done for a lower cost. So it is a breakthrough. But we will borrow from what they did, just as they have been borrowing from what we've done.

And keep in mind, the best products today are still the OpenAI products. and anthropics clawed, and those probably have what you would call a clearer path to the basket of making yet further improvements. So it has not surpassed us, no.
