Microsoft and Meta protected AI investments on a large scale amid growing competition from Deepsek. Mint

In view of the success of Chinese upstart Dipsek in cheap AI computing, Microsoft and Meta officials have defended their important investment in the AI ​​infrastructure, despite the rising costs and increasing concerns over investor impatience.

Deepsek, an emerging player in the AI ​​space, has shocked the technical industry with claims that can compete with the models, and even to the Western counterparts, at a fraction of all costs. This rapid progress has raised doubts about the major situation of the US in AI, some observers have questioned whether heavy capital investment made by US tech veterans can guarantee a competitive lead.

Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg emphasized the importance of making heavy investments in capital expenditure, stating that such expenses would eventually provide a long -term strategic advantage. “Investing ‘very heavy’ in capital expenditure and infrastructure is going to be a strategic benefit over time,” Zuckerberg commented during a post-kamai call.

Similarly, Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella underlined the need for such investments to meet the increasing demands run by AI. During a call with analysts, he said, “As AI becomes more efficient and accessible, we will see more demands,” he said during a call with analysts.

Microsoft has committed AI to $ 80 billion in its current financial year, while Meta pledged to $ 65 billion. These money dwarfed $ 6 million Deepsek, claiming that it has spent on developing its AI model, although experts argue that the discrepancy is largely spent on computing power instead of overall development costs. It stems from the huge amount.

Meanwhile, Microsoft Corp and Openai are also currently investigating whether the data generated by Openai’s technology was accessed by a group associated with Chinese Startup Deepsek without authority, according to sources familiar with this case, as Bloomberg Has been told by

According to the agency’s report, citing sources, Microsoft security researchers found that individuals, allegedly joined Deepsek, had an important amount of data through the Openai Application Programming Interface (API).

The report also states that software developers OpenIA’s ownership Artificial Intelligence models can be paid a license fee to use API to integrate their own applications.
