PANews reported on February 1 that according to Jinshi, citing the technology media TechCrunch, in a Reddit AMA, OpenAI CEO Altman admitted that DeepSeek has weakened OpenAI's leading position in the field of AI. He said: "We are on the wrong side of history in open source. I think we need to find a different open source strategy. Not everyone at OpenAI agrees with this view, and this is not our current priority. We will produce better models, but the lead will not be as big as before."
