Chinese startup DeepSearch is suspected of plagiarizing OpenAI models, sparking controversy

Chinese startup DeepSeek has been caught up in a plagiarism scandal, accused of stealing OpenAI's model for development. OpenAI is the developer of the well-known chatbot ChatGPT, and they suspect that DeepSeek has used their "distillation" technology. Although distillation technology is common in the AI ​​industry, if DeepSeek uses this technology to build its own model and compete with OpenAI, it may violate OpenAI's terms of service. In addition, DeepSeek is also accused of owning a large number of Nvidia H100 high-end chips, which may violate US export control regulations.
