Meta is reportedly scrambling ‘war rooms’ of engineers to figure out how DeepSeek’s AI is beating everyone else at a fraction of the price
Meta's Mark Zuckerberg responded to the release of DeepSeek R1 by assembling four war rooms of engineers to figure out how the Chinese hedge fund built the AI. DeepSeek's model may potentially outperform the next version of Meta's Llama AI due to be released in early 2025. Meta is working on deciphering how DeepSeek lowered the cost of training and running its model, finding out what data the Chinese lab used to train its model, and how Meta can restructure its models based on the attributes of the DeepSeek models.
