OpenAI founder admits China’s DeepSeek is ‘impressive’
From RT
US tech mogul Sam Altman has vowed that his firm will deliver “much better models” in the future The Chinese-developed DeepSeek AI is an “impressive model,” OpenAI CEO and co-founder Sam Altman has admitted, vowing that his own company will deliver better alternatives in the future. The Hangzhou-based start-up released its AI Assistant app earlier […]
“There’s a technique in AI called distillation, which you’re going to hear a lot about. It’s when one model learns from another model,” Sacks explained to Fox News. “Effectively, the student model asks the parent model millions of questions, mimicking the reasoning process and absorbing knowledge.”
“They can essentially extract the knowledge out of the model,” he continued. “There’s substantial evidence that what #DeepSeek did here was distill knowledge from OpenAI’s models.” “I don’t think #OpenAI is too happy about this,” Sacks added.
Some notes from tonights reading of "The Body Electric" by Robert O. Becker.
Hans Driesch's concept of "entelechy" - a driving force behind life that defies physical laws - resonates with me. An idea that was met with resistance in its time, a pattern that seems to repeat throughout history, where curiosity and innovation often clash with established dogma.
I'm intrigued by the holographic nature of cellular biology, where cells retain the entire genetic code during division.
This challenges the traditional view that cell division is a one-way process, and that mature cells can't dedifferentiate back into primitive embryonic cells.
However, it appears they can.
It explains why fractures don't heal like broken bones, which trigger a dedifferentiation process that enables regeneration through primitive embryonic cells like osteoblasts.
