According to information, Deepseek’s leadership, including Wenfen Lyana’s CEO, was not satisfied with the current performance of the model. This is because cloud providers in China cannot provide the necessary information processing power.
The situation is complex with existing US export restrictions. As a result, chips are not enough to serve the existing Deepseek R1, which is actively used on local cloud platforms.
Deepseek previously reportedly tried to overcome restrictions with the help of “proxy companies in Asia, but even such intersections stopped working. Despite the presence of alternatives such as Huawei chips, the company cannot trust them for large -scale practice.
Thus, US export measures slowly slow the release of new local models by effectively restricting China’s ambitions in the field of artificial intelligence.
