As DeepSeek upends the AI industry, one group is urging Australia to embrace the opportunity Recruiting top graduates could stop other countries pulling ahead in artificial intelligence race, tech council says.
A spokesperson for Telstra said the company had “a rigorous process to assess all AI tools, capabilities, and use cases in our business”, including a list of approved generative AI tools, and guidelines on how to use them.
Whereas ChatGPT’s 2022 arrival caught governments and businesses by surprise as staff began to try out the new AI technology, at least for the arrival of Deepseek, some had a playbook.
But others have welcomed DeepSeek’s arrival, calling for Australia to follow China’s lead in developing powerful yet less energy-intensive AI technology.
Several global industry leaders saw their market values drop after the launch, as DeepSeek showed AI could be developed using a fraction of the cost and processing required to train models such as ChatGPT or Meta’s Llama.
