OpenAI CEO Sam Altman praised Chinese AI startup DeepSeek’s R1 model, calling it “impressive” for its cost-effective approach. However, he emphasized OpenAI’s commitment to delivering superior models, noting that competition from DeepSeek is “invigorating.”
DeepSeek’s R1 model gained attention for its innovative use of Nvidia H800 chips, delivering performance at 20 to 50 times lower costs compared to OpenAI’s o1 model, as shared on their official WeChat. The startup previously demonstrated its efficiency in AI research with DeepSeek-V3, developed with just $6 million in computational resources.
Altman posted on X:
➡️ “DeepSeek’s R1 is an impressive model, particularly around what they’re able to deliver for the price. We will obviously deliver much better models and also it’s legit invigorating to have a new competitor!”
