I will say it again, what does this 'hack' has to do with Deepseek?
On the surface…nothing…but using logic, there is a reasonable level of confidence that state hackers were the culprits in the OpenAI hack. What motivation does a government have to commit espionage for a company?
3 things: first every single company in that country is part owned by the government and the government requires all IP, products, etc. be dual use so it can be militarized,
second the government takes their image on the main-stage above all else (to the point where they will stage events and create fake AI products just to fool tech writers at conferences. This kind of behavior is found in almost every market segment in that country but the most infamous is their “Tofu-Dreg” construction materials and techniques that look great for 2-3 years and then literally disintegrate at an alarming rate after milking it for all the positive image coverage they can get) and they have been touting their country is the leader in “AI 5G expertise” with nothing to demonstrate that “perceived” leadership until just now, thus stealing, reverse-engineering, and then revealing a competitor to the U.S.’s pride and joy out of no where has their governments fingerprints all over it.
Three, to make it seem (IE maintaining their image) that their country is unstoppable and unaffected by the West’s sanctions even though in reality it is being negatively affected by it (remember how the Huawei Mate-60 came out and they touted the Kirin-9000S was on a homegrown 5nm process but turned out to be stockpiled TSMC manufacture Kirin-9000 rebadged. Interestingly enough, the Mate-60 was the last 5G capable phone to come out by Huawei because SMIC process isn’t efficient or fast enough to handle 5G requirements).
You have to remember that China and the Soviet Union have remarkably similar Foreign Affairs practices. Above all else, project a perfect picture of the country and its way of govern-ship while hiding the true condition and disarray of the country within, and second, steal or copy anything found abroad that the country would benefit from to help protect and project the country’s image. China has stolen and copied F-35 Lightning and F-22 Raptor stealth fighter designs, AH-64 Apache Attack helicopter, and Blackhawk helicopter designs, 2 U.S. military cargo craft designs, and copied the m-4 carbine rifle design for their new service rifle just to name a few off the top of my head.
