DeepSeek reiterates that its open-source releases are the same models it uses internally.
- In a response to concerns that open sourcing could conflict with its consumer business, the company says that does not happen.
- It states it will not release an inferior model publicly while deploying a better one in-house.
- The post reinforces DeepSeek’s earlier position: open sourcing its models does not create a meaningful business conflict because the public and private versions are the same.
