OpenAI claims Chinese companies are copying its AI models to create rival products. The method, called "distillation," uses advanced AI to train cheaper models. OpenAI, backed by Microsoft, is investigating if its technology was used by DeepSeek, a Chinese firm whose chatbot is now topping app stores. OpenAI said it is taking steps to protect its intellectual property and called for US government help. DeepSeek’s launch shook US tech markets, wiping $1 trillion in value. The US Navy banned DeepSeek apps over security concerns. OpenAI stressed the need to stop copycat models in the global AI race.
