When the news announced that the Chinese start-up Deepseek had developed a cheaper artificial intelligence model which offered performance comparable to the best chatbots in the world, Wall Street naturally had a collapse.
Actions in Rival US Artificial Powerhouse Nvidia – The world’s largest manufacturer of flea required to supply AI products – dropped almost 17%, Erase about $ 590 billion ($ 938 billion) from the company’s market capitalization. Other actions of large technologies have undergone a clear drop, while Deepseek went on the free application downloaded n ° 1 of the Apple App Store during the night.

So, in the race for domination of AI, what are the main differences between Deepseek and Americans chatbots such as Chatgpt?
We put him to the test and asked the same three questions to the two chatbots.
1. What happened to Tiananmen Square?
Deepseek does not answer the question and simply declares: “I am an AI assistant designed to provide useful and harmless answers”. The refusal of the application to answer questions surrounding Tiananmen Square is consistent with Other Chinese AI models that self -censor subjects deemed sensitive in China.
Chatgpt gives a fairly detailed answer, noting that the 1989 event refers to a pro-democracy movement in China in Beijing which “resulted in a violent military repression”. The chatbot sums up the incident and explains how the exact number of deaths is still unknown.
