David Sacks claims there's 'substantial evidence' that DeepSeek used OpenAI's models to train its own
David Sacks, Trump's AI and crypto "czar," said in an interview on Fox on Tuesday that there's "substantial evidence" that Chinese AI company DeepSeek "distilled" knowledge from OpenAI's AI models, a process that Sacks compared to theft. Sacks, who didn't cite the source of this "evidence," suggested that DeepSeek used responses from OpenAI models to train its own. "I don't think OpenAI is very happy about this," Sacks said.
