Elon Musk has expressed doubts about the success of a Chinese AI company Deepsek, creating waves in the world of technology. As it attracts attention to its AI progression, Musk’s comments on X (East Twitter) suggest that it is not fully convinced by her claims or publicity. He has also made fun of Deepsek AI in one of his social media posts.

Deepsek’s AI Chatbot has been seen as a major innovation, many compared their abilities to American AI models such as openi’s chat. However, what is notable is that Deepsek allegedly achieved these results with very little investment. This has created a lot of enthusiasm in the AI ​​community, many people have seen it as a strong contestant for established players. The increase in the company’s popularity has also triggered a noticeable change in the market, as Nvidia, a leading supplier of GPU for AI, saw its market cap drop with a big margin after the announcement of the latest AI product of Deepsek.

Despite the discussion, Elon Musk has not been affected. When CEO Mark Benioff, CEO of Salesforce, praised Dipsek’s achievements and suggested that data and metadata AI had a real value, Musk had a dismissal “Lamo, not.” This small but sharp answer exposed Musk’s suspicion on the value of the AI ​​model of Deepsek.

Kasturi did not stop there. He also shared his views on the use of Deepsek’s hardware capabilities, especially the GPU. While Deepsek claims to use around 10,000 A100 NVidia GPU, Musk and Scale AI CEO Alexandra Wang estimated that the company could hide its real hardware ability due to US export control. Wang suggested that the possibility of Deepsek has access to about 50,000 Nvidia Hopper GPU, which would make their AI system far more powerful than publicly disclosed. Musk responded to Wang’s claim with a simple “clearly,”, further indicating his confidence that the company was not getting transparent.

In addition to his important comments on Deepsek’s AI technology, Musk also took an opportunity to make fun of the company’s Chinese origin. When a user jokingly stated that the AI ​​of Deepsek, called R1, was “leaked from a laboratory in China,” Musk replied with a laugh emoji, the role of China in global technological development Referring to previous controversies about.

While Deepsek continues to gain attention and recognition, Musk’s reactions suggest that it is not confident that the company has a serious challenge for the dominance of American technical giants such as AI OpenaiI. His suspicion also shows that he now has a growing rivalry between AI companies in the US and China.
