OpenAI Furious DeepSeek Might Have Stolen All the Data OpenAI Stole From Us

OpenAI shocked that an AI company would train on someone else's data without permission or compensation.

Summary

OpenAI and Microsoft are investigating whether Chinese AI startup DeepSeek improperly trained its R1 model using OpenAI’s outputs.

Reports suggest DeepSeek may have used “distillation,” a technique where one AI model learns from another by asking vast numbers of questions.

Venture capitalist and Trump administration member David Sacks claims there is “substantial evidence” of this.

Critics highlight the irony of OpenAI complaining about data misuse, given its own history of scraping vast amounts of data without authorization to train its models.

    It’s a bit misleading to call it an open source project.

    The code that supports defining the shape of the model and querying against it is open source. But the training framework, which processes the data and populates the model, is proprietary.
