Did a group of individuals leak sensitive ChatGPT data to DeepSeek? Microsoft and OpenAI investigate as that could be the reason for the Chinese startup's success

DeepSeek AI is just a very new China-based startup company that has created a major wave in the AI marketplace by taking on the likes of OpenAI's ChatGPT as major competition as soon as its launch. DeepSeek R1 and V3 models are steadily capturing the AI market and Open AI, Microsoft, and other AI-based companies based in Silicon Valley can only sit back and watch.

Meanwhile, Microsoft and OpenAI have launched a thorough probe into whether their internal data and resources were at all used to help develop DeepSeek's AI models.

OpenAI launches probe into any possible internal 'leak'

Whether this data was obtained from Microsoft and OpenAI's servers by any groups linked with DeepSeek is currently of major concern to both these companies, and the course of action would reportedly be decided thereafter if any such suspected inconsistency is found.


Microsoft is majorly concerned about his issue as they are the biggest investors in OpenAI, and their security researchers are of the opinion that some individuals linked with the Chinese AI company, DeepSeek, could be responsible for extracting sensitive data related to the training of AI models, which was then helped to develop the likes of DeepSeek R1 and DeepSeek V3, for starters.

While the stock prices of AI stocks keep tanking during early trading, Microsoft and OpenAI are relentlessly trying to search for any leak in their system and resolve it at the earliest.
