In a significant development within the artificial intelligence sector, OpenAI has accused Chinese AI startup DeepSeek of utilizing its proprietary models to train a competing AI system. OpenAI alleges that DeepSeek employed a technique known as "distillation," which involves using a larger, more advanced model to train a smaller one, potentially violating OpenAI's terms of service. This method allows the distilled model to replicate the performance of the original without direct access to its underlying code or data.
Microsoft, a significant investor in OpenAI, conducted an investigation revealing that individuals associated with DeepSeek may have extracted substantial amounts of data from OpenAI's API. This finding has prompted ongoing scrutiny into the matter.
API Compatibility! Not a Joke!
DeepSeek has recently gained attention for its API's full compatibility with OpenAI's SDKs, requiring only a change in the URL and API key for developers to transition. This strategy has been described as both shrewd and cunning, simplifying the process for developers entrenched in the OpenAI ecosystem to explore DeepSeek's offerings without a steep learning curve.
