Sam Altman, Executive Director of Openai, during the session “Ask me about anything” in Reddit admitted that the company needs to review its artificial intelligence approach with a closed source, although it pointed out the internal disagreements of the team on this subject.

In the surprising recognition of one of the most influential people in the world, words were heard that the Open AI “found the wrong side of history” regarding the open source code, indicating a possible cardinal change in the strategy of the strategy of the Company as China’s competition intensifies and propagates open open models.
Altman’s statements continued shortly after the Deepseek Chinese company shocked world markets with its R1 model with open source. The developers say that the product is comparable by yield with operai solutions at a much lower cost.
“We will create more advanced models, but we will have fewer advantages than in previous years,” Altman admitted, directly responding to the question of Deepseek’s influence, whose model considers “very good.”
The statements of the Chinese company about the creation of AI AI models for only $ 5.6 million to train and use only 2,000 NVIDIA H800 graphic processors instead of more than 10 thousand.
But there is Deepseek’s development and its difficulties. Although the Chat R1 fund was a leadership position in Apple Store and Google Play stores, and the great US cloud service providers such as Microsoft began offering it on their platforms, hundreds of state companies blocked the service. This was written by Bloomberg with reference to an interview with the bosses of Cyber Companies Armis and Netskope.
Market actors are concerned about the possible data leak from the Chinese government, because, according to Depseek’s confidentiality policy, the company stores all user data in China, where local laws force companies to provide special services upon request. In addition, an investigation into the purchase of chips began: there are assumptions that were committed by sanctions.
Despite all doubts, larger AI developers cannot stay away from the news and make statements. In Altman’s situation, it was important to speak, since the work in AI with closed source code in recent years caused OpenAi more and more critical of some AI researchers and even former allies, first of all, Ilona’s mask. And Altman’s new statement is a remarkable deviation of the professed property approach.
However, Altman emphasized that currently “the open source code is not the main priority of OpenAi.” Therefore, he showed that he is busy looking for a balance between innovation, security and marketing in an increasingly multipolar world of AI.
Industry leaders should think today not only about profits, but also about how new solutions will affect the change in the AI ecosystem as a whole. On the one hand, the transfer of key models to subcontracting can accelerate innovation and democratize access, but, on the other hand, this can complicate work to guarantee the safety of AI. And this has always been one of the main Operai missions.
