CEO of American AI Company Perplexity: DeepSeek is not copying, but innovating

ChainCatcher news, Aravind Srinivas, CEO of the American AI company Perplexity, stated in an interview with CNBC: "Because DeepSeek had to find ways to bypass various restrictions, they ultimately created something that is actually more efficient. They proposed many clever solutions.

The common perception is that Chinese people are good at copying. But the reality is that some details in DeepSeek 3 are outstanding, and I wouldn't be surprised if Meta borrows some of those elements and applies them to the Llama model. This is not to say they are copying, but rather that they are innovating."
