Former Intel CEO Pat Gelsinger has made a surprising choice by choosing to use the DeepSeek AI platform in his startup Gloo. DeepSeek, a Chinese AI startup, has unveiled the R1 model, which achieves results comparable to OpenAI's developments, but requires significantly less computing resources.
This innovation has raised concerns in the market, as cheaper and more efficient solutions like DeepSeek could potentially reduce demand for high-performance chips. This has already affected the market value of major players such as Nvidia. However, Gelsinger himself believes that such changes will only expand the market for innovative technologies.
By choosing DeepSeek, Gelsinger demonstrates his trust in this platform, despite the temporary suspension of new user registration due to a cyber incident. DeepSeek representatives assure that they are working to restore the platform and strengthen its security.
