Summary

OpenAI claims Chinese AI startup DeepSeek used its proprietary models without authorization, allegedly extracting large amounts of data via OpenAI’s API.

The company blocked suspected accounts for violating its terms of service.

The revelation comes as OpenAI restructures into a for-profit entity and deepens its partnership with Microsoft.

DeepSeek’s emergence has disrupted AI markets, briefly affecting NVIDIA’s stock.

    In Portuguese we have an expression that would roughly translate to “a thief who steals from a thief is forgiven for a thousand years”.

    I don’t remember it ever applying so literally.

      The same expression exists verbatim also in Spanish: “Ladrón que roba a ladrón tiene 100 años de perdón”.
