Chinese AI shooting star DeepSeek has made headlines for its R1 chatbot’s supposed low cost and high performance, but also its claim to be a public-spirited open-source project in contrast to closed alternatives from OpenAI and Google. — AFP picas a first-time user .
The California-based Open Source Initiative says truly open-source software should also be free to redistribute, allow derived works and be free of a slew of potential licensing restrictions. And keeping projects up to date across a loose network of collaborators can be tricky, especially with funding hard to come by.DeepSeek’s R1 offers similar text-generating functionality to western rivals including OpenAI’s ChatGPT, Anthropic’s Claude or Meta’s Llama.
In the AI field, “open source” is “often... more aspiration or marketing than technical descriptor,” researchers David Gray Widder and Sarah Myers West and Signal chief Meredith Whittaker argued in a 2023 paper. “The release of DeepSeek-R1 is an amazing opportunity for the open-source community, they didn’t publish everything,” said Thomas Wolf, co-founder of open-access AI platform Hugging Face.Some lesser-known, fully open AI platforms do exist, such as Bloom, born from a collaborative effort dubbed BigScience, or Linagora’s Lucie chatbot, which stumbled with obviously wrong answers in a recent public release.
