In a call for greater global collaboration in artificial intelligence, AI and Technology commentator Edgar Perez has highlighted China’s DeepSeek as an “excellent example” of open-source AI development.
Perez emphasized the importance of sharing resources and research to promote the global advancement of AI technology. He believes that initiatives like DeepSeek demonstrate how collaborative efforts can accelerate innovation and make cutting-edge technology accessible to all.
“By promoting open-source platforms like DeepSeek, we’re fostering a community where knowledge and resources are shared,” Perez said. “This not only propels AI development forward but also ensures that advancements benefit everyone, not just a select few.”
DeepSeek, developed in the Chinese mainland, exemplifies how openness in AI can lead to significant technological strides. As AI continues to shape the future, Perez urges more countries and organizations to embrace collaboration over competition.
“For the Global South and young innovators everywhere, open-source AI projects offer a chance to contribute to and benefit from the rapidly evolving tech landscape,” Perez added.
