Ep14: How DeepSeek Beat OpenAI - The 3 Breakthroughs No One Saw Coming

AI is evolving faster than ever, and DeepSeek has sent shockwaves through the industry. In this episode of the Data Neighbor Podcast, we sit down with Dr. Raffaele Ciriello, a scholar in information systems at the University of Sydney, to unpack the impact of DeepSeek and its implications for the future of AI innovation, sustainability, and ethics.DeepSeek R1 and DeepSeek V3 have positioned themselves as major competitors to OpenAI's GPT-4, Google's Gemini, and Meta's LLaMA models—but what makes them different? In this episode, we discuss how DeepSeek AI is redefining the large language model (LLM) space, how its open-source AI model challenges proprietary AI, and whether it could be the best free AI alternative. We also explore the financial impact on Nvidia stock, as DeepSeek’s approach proves that cutting-edge AI doesn’t require billions in GPU investment. Plus, we break down how DeepSeek's mixture-of-experts (MoE) architecture is reshaping AI efficiency, its potential risks in AI companionship and generative AI, and what this means for the future of AI regulation and governance.🔗 Links Mentioned:Connect with Raffaele: https://www.linkedin.com/in/raffaele-ciriello/Raffaele’s Google Scholar: https://scholar.google.ch/citations?user=BIJHqJYAAAAJ&hl=enRaffaele’s ResearchGate: https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Raffaele-CirielloLatest article from Raffaele on OpenAI's Deep Research capability: https://theconversation.com/openais-new-deep-research-agent-is-still-just-a-fallible-tool-not-a-human-level-expert-249496Raffaele's article on Compassionate AI Design, Governance, and Use: https://www.techrxiv.org/users/886325/articles/1264666-compassionate-ai-design-governance-and-use🔍 Key Topics Covered:🔥 The rise of DeepSeek and why it’s a game-changer💰 How DeepSeek shattered AI’s cost barriers🆚 Open Source vs. Proprietary AI: What’s at stake?⚡ The environmental impact of AI & the Jevons Paradox🚀 AI regulation, safety, and the road aheadWe also dive into AI companionship, the ethical risks of unchecked AI, and how open-source AI could empower more responsible governance.
