If China has done to Sam Altman what his OpenAI has been accused of doing to creatives, it would take a heart of stone not to laugh<\/p>\n

I once saw an episode of America\u2019s Dumbest Criminals<\/a> where a man called the cops to report his car stolen, only for it to turn out he\u2019d stolen it from someone else in the first place. I couldn\u2019t help thinking of him this week while watching OpenAI\u2019s Sam Altman wet his pants about the fact that a Chinese hedge fund might have made unauthorised use of his own chatbot models, including ChatGPT, to train their new little side project. This is the cheaper, more open, extremely share-price-slashing DeepSeek.<\/p>\n

As news of DeepSeek played havoc<\/a> with the tech stock market, OpenAI pressed its hanky to its nose and released a statement<\/a>: \u201cWe are aware of and reviewing indications that DeepSeek may have inappropriately distilled our models, and will share information as we know more,\u201d this ran. \u201cWe take aggressive, proactive countermeasures to protect our technology.\u201d Oooooooooh! I want to say \u201cwelcome to America\u2019s Dumbest Tech Barons\u201d, except I can\u2019t, because I think we all know that no law enforcement is coming to get Sam for the stuff he\u2019s<\/em> alleged to have made unauthorised use of<\/a> first. That was the good type of alleged theft, whatever the claims of all the lawsuits<\/a> belatedly trying to claw something back for the alleged copyright victims of his firm\u2019s own inappropriate methods.<\/p>\n
