Durov explained Depseek’s success for the superiority of Chinese education

“After the success of the Chinese Startup Depseek, many are surprised by the speed with which China could catch up with the United States in the field of artificial intelligence. However, China’s progress in the field of algorithmic effectiveness is not an accident. Chinese students have been ahead of their classmates in international Olympics in mathematics and programming, ”said the billionaire.

According to him, China schools encourage “hard competition” among students, which allows him to create “outstanding specialists in the field of mathematics and natural sciences.” The Chinese education system borrowed this principle “of an extremely effective Soviet model,” said the businessman.

At the same time, in most Western schools, “competition is not welcome” to protect students from pressure and ridicule, teachers are prohibited from announcing qualifications and qualifications, Duñov said. The consequence of this, in his opinion, is a decrease in the motivation of the best students. “It is not surprising that many talented children find more emotion in electronic sports than in their studies, at least in video games they can see their qualification among other players,” said Telegram head.

The competition, Durov continued, is also present in real life, where people compete in sports, businesses, sciences and technology. An example of this is Depseek, who turned the solutions of Western companies in many Jeangmarks, a billionaire said. “If the United States Secondary Education System does not undergo radical reforms, China’s technological domain will become inevitable,” he concluded.

Earlier this week, Depseek exceeded the Operai Chatgpt application for the amount of downloads in the US Application Store, and then headed the top store and Google Play Tops in Russia. The increase in the popularity of the Chinese neuronal network led to the collapse of the US stock market as a result of which the richest people in the world lost $ 108 billion of total capital.

On January 29, Bloomberg said Microsoft suspected that the deep visions of illegally obtaining Openai data and began investigation of possible leaks. Microsoft specialists caught attention to a group of people supposedly related to Depseek who downloaded a large amount of data through the API Openai.
