New AI Models from China Challenge US Dominance
According to a CNBC report, China-based AI lab DeepSeek has sparked concern in Silicon Valley by releasing AI models that outperform leading U.S. systems despite using cheaper methods and less-powerful Nvidia H800 chips. In December 2024, DeepSeek launched a free open-source model developed in two months for under $6 million, which surpassed Meta’s Llama 3.1, OpenAI’s GPT-4o, and Anthropic’s Claude Sonnet 3.5 in benchmark tests. Its latest model, r1, also outperformed OpenAI’s o1 in reasoning tasks, the report states.
DeepSeek’s advancements, achieved despite U.S. semiconductor restrictions, raise questions about America’s AI dominance and the efficiency of large-scale AI investments. Experts attribute their success to techniques like distillation, which optimize smaller models using larger ones, as per CNBC.

U.S. Pushes for Global AI Leadership with Policy Changes
As China challenges US dominance, the new US President, Donald Trump is also making announcements to keep the US as the global AI leader. Apart from the announcement of the $500 billion Stargate Project, President Trump also signed an executive order aimed at removing AI-related policies introduced during the Biden Administration, which he claims restricted innovation through excessive government control.
The new order repeals Biden’s AI regulations and instructs agencies to revise policies that may hinder AI advancements. It also emphasizes the need for the U.S. to maintain global leadership in AI, focusing on national security, economic growth, and unbiased AI development. The order includes creating an AI Action Plan and revising federal AI governance guidelines. It builds on the president’s previous initiatives, such as increasing AI research funding, establishing AI research institutes, and issuing guidance for AI standards and federal adoption.
