American officials find out whether the Chinese AI-company DEEPEEEK has bought advanced NVIDIA semiconductors through third parties in Singapore, bypassing US restrictions on the sale of chips intended for artificial intelligence. About it reports Bloomberg with reference to sources. Recently, Deeseek has released a chatbot R1, which in some aspects demonstrate productivity at the level of leading US decisions, which may indicate more China’s progress in the AI race than before. Engineers note the high level of R1, and the company itself emphasizes its low cost and efficiency, which raised suspicions among competitors in the use of Western technologies. White House and FBI officials are trying to determine whether deepeseek has used intermediaries in Southeast Asia to purchase Nvidia chip-east, prohibited for the sale of China. Advertising: DEEPSEEK has not yet commented on the situation. Nvidia, in turn, stated that it requires all laws to comply with its partners and responds to any violations. Earlier this week, the company reported that DEEPSEEK has violated US restrictions. The FBI representative gave up comment, and the White House did not give an prompt response. The Singapore Embassy in Washington was unavailable outside the working hours. Howard Latnik, a candidate for the post of US Trade Minister Donald Trump, said DEEPSEEK has bypassed US export control. “They bought a huge number of nvidia chips, found a way to bypass the restriction, and now they use them in their Ai-model Deeeseek “, – said Latnik during the hearing in the Senate. “It has to stop. If they want to compete with us, let them do it honestly, not using our technologies. I will strictly control this issue.” DEEPSEEK R1, released this month in Chinese Hanchzhou, is able to simulate human thinking, which can be a threat to the market that is currently dominated by Openai and American companies. This has already caused the market collapse of $ 1 trillion. This situation has caused a debate on the effectiveness of US restrictions aimed at slowing down the development of China’s semiconductor industry and preventing AI use to strengthen Beijing’s military power. Recall: Donalda Trump Administration considers the possibility of strengthening restrictions on the export of NVIDIA Corp. to China. Retail investors bought a record number of NVIDIA shares on Monday after fear of cheap artificial intelligence model from Chinese startup DEEPSEEK deprived the company 17% of the shares, or $ 593 billion from its market value. The shares of the US technology companies have fallen significantly during the pre -commissar session due to the breakthrough of the Chinese startup Deeleseek in the field of artificial intelligence. The United States introduces even more severe restrictions on the export of chips and technologies of artificial intelligence, seeking to preserve advanced computing developments for their own needs and allies, as well as complicate their access to China.
