Microsoft Probing If DeepSeek-Linked Group Improperly Obtained OpenAI Data
Microsoft Corp. and OpenAI are investigating whether data output from OpenAI’s technology was obtained in an unauthorized manner by a group linked to Chinese artificial intelligence startup DeepSeek, according to people familiar with the matter.
The irony is overwhelming
An irony curtain.
Stealing from thieves isn't a crime.
Especially not when China turns around and Robin Hoods it back to the world.
Just saying.
China really did one on our oligarchs haha
Beautiful
These parasites expect me to side with them?
Chinese company:
Truly, you have a dizzling intellect.
Microsoft:
AND IM JUST GETTING STARTED! Where was I?
Chinese company:
Stealing data....
“You can’t steal that public data! We stole it first!”
And considering that’s exactly what Microsoft did to Apple with point and click, what irony!
Oh really? **Rabbit hole unlocked

The relevant part of Pirates of Silicon Valley. After which you should watch the whole thing. It’s fan fiction, but it’s the best explanation of what happened between Apple and Microsoft leading into the 1990s.
What, you mean like Microsoft, uh, OpenAI did?
Yep, NOW it's a problem, though! Because it's someone else doing the same thing, someone who isn't part of the human centipede starting at Trump's colon.
What data? they one OpenAI illegally obtained first?!
Somebody better call the WAHMBULANCE!
You mean they ripped off the copyrighted material that OpenAI ripped off?
we stole it fair and square
What’s the game plan if they did?
Trade restrictions?
China already proved those did fuck all to stop them from developing their own model.
Ducking knew this ai bubble would burst sooner or later, just glad we can finally get on with it now.
Are they worried that deepsink too stuff written by others, mixed it up, and repackaged it as it's own?
Well, yeah, that's all AI is. An expensive weighted pachinko machine, that uses human made content, and remixes it.
The question isn't whether they've used the same information. It's whether they've faked the process to achieve that 20x efficiency.
Look at it like a dictionary. Writing one from scratch is a huge task, no matter how many other books exist. How do you even go about finding all of the words?
But if other people have already written dictionaries, you can just use their word lists and go from there.
It's more efficient, but only because it's a completely different task.
Is it worth it? Let me work it I put my thing down, flip it and reverse it
It’s no crime to steal from a thief.
How could it be better when they just stole everything? The fact that its better basically proves that its not stolen.
If I stole from the thief, is it really stealing?
In Brazil, there's a rhymed saying: "ladrão que rouba ladrão tem 100 anos de perdão", it translates to "a thief that steals from a thief has 100 years of forgiveness"
It's a common proverb in Portuguese, not just in Brazil.
Lol its like fucking lavrov from fucking russia screaming "this is against international law" when Europe froze their assets.
Bro... US reaction here is so pathetic...
The behavior is indicative of a bigger issue. They really do think only they are allowed to cheat and steal to win lol
I’m sure now that OpenAI accuses DeepSeek of stealing they will now prove that they have rights to things that are being stolen, right? XD
So that means that Microsoft will pay compensation to us, right?
Time to talk about data rights :)
When you can't beat em, sue em. It's the American way.

Looks like Microsoft is bracing for today’s earnings call
"Tom, if irony was strawberries we'd all be drinking smoothies right now"
"Waaaaah" you say?
Maybe they could buy a spare one from AliBaba. Maybe that would help..
lol, I love it. I'm thinking about paying for DeepSeek even though I hate AI bullshit, just to spite all the panicking AI tech scammers. This has seriously made my week, the amount of copium they are inhaling is insanely funny :D
Use duck duck go ai chat https://duck.ai/
If I had money to spend, I would get a ChatGPT subscription since they lose money for every account.
The whole startup industry rely on investors to cover for their costs for years, while they work on a loss, in order to obtain a bigger market share. Look at Netflix, Facebook, WhatsApp, etc.
So buying an account you are increasing their market share.
But feel free to use Mistral, Deepseek, etc. that would be better
Just rent some server space instead and run your open-weights model of choice
You have to use it a lot. From what I can tell that's their problem, they priced unlimited access low based on some numbers they pulled out their arse and then were all shocked Pikachu face when people used it and unlimited amount.
That's only for the 200$ one, and if you use it constantly, no?
