The mountains of the data and the state -of -the -art chips are indispensable ingredients, but the freedom of expression is a secret source.
China is aiming to become an AI superpower in the world by 2030, so when a homemade Deepseek model pit ChatGpt at the Apple App Store last weekend, many people, including the stock market, expanded the summit. I thought it was. The market is whimsical. They shake from the rapid increase in NVIDIA -wild optimism since the release of Chatgpt in November 2022. But three days after Funk, we may be able to take stock quietly. Are we Beat in the AI race? Maybe the abundant Chinese data has beaten the American chips? What will happen now?
First, the race is not over. The ultimate goal is an artificial general information or AGI -awarded awards with learning abilities like humans, and no one is close to it. Second, Deepseek’s impressive is that it was built on a $ 6 million (claimed) shoehine budget, mainly without the benefits of cutting -edge chips. Regarding the algorithms of research and writing, it is not surprising that China has been holding his neck and neck for many years.
However, openness is also important for AI or other technologies to prosper. Insular USSR led the space race in SPUTNIK 1, but knows how the Cold War ended. South Korea is open, and Korea is not. China is not open either. when toi When asked, “What happened at Tiananmen Square,” he apologized for the answer. No matter how powerful the AI model is, it cannot achieve the perfect possibilities under censorship. In China, AI in China needs to compete with government data control, including everything from weather to tax return. In 2015, China ranked 93rd in the openness of government data, and we were 8th.
Not only Chinese apps but also user data can be sucked around the world, but this opportunity is shrinking. Our Tactoku’s struggle is a good example. India has banned many Chinese apps for many years, but Western countries are becoming more and more uncomfortable. US Navy I ordered the members not to use DeepSeek through potential security Concerns are paying attention to Australian leaders. In addition, reserves on Chinese AI apps grow only among open society, as AI spreads incorrect information, destroys elections, and compromise security systems. In addition, censorship and control have promoted many of China’s brightest heart overseas. Therefore, it may eventually prove that the openness -freedom of expression- is an X factor in the AI race.
