Despite the breakthrough of Deepseek, Meta will not slow AI's expenditure

Yuan CEO Mark Zuckerberg said on Wednesday that it is too early to say that DeepSeek's breakthrough AI model will have on his company and the wider scientific and technological industry.

Nevertheless, Zuckerberg still poured cold water in the concept of the overall artificial intelligence expenditure of Meta, because Deepseek was said to prove that the funds and computing resources required by the tip of the cutting -edge AI than the previous imagination were previously imagined. It is much less.

Zuckerberg said: “Now the trajectory of this infrastructure and capital expenditure means that it may be too early.” “There are many trends in one here.”

The technology market rolled up the AI ​​model created by DeepSeek this week. This model is based on Hangzhou's AI laboratory and is related to the climax of hedge funds in China. Deepseek claims that it only took two months to develop its R1 large language model, less than $ 6 million. This news made NVIDIA stocks sell on 17 % of tanks on Monday because the company does not need so many chip manufacturers' graphics processing units for its artificial intelligence projects.

Zuckerberg discussed Deepseek on Wednesday with analysts on Wednesday, which is part of Meta's fourth quarter. The company reports that sales have increased by 21 % year -on -year to $ 48.39 billion, which has advanced Wall Street's expectations.

Meta's stock rose nearly 2 % on Monday, indicating that some investors believe that the cost and benefits of Deepseek may mean that social media companies may be able to create a strong AI system with less money. Meta announced last week that as part of the AI ​​driving force, it plans to invest 60 billion to 65 billion US dollars this year. The company said on Wednesday that its total expenses in 2025 will be between $ 114 billion and $ 119 billion.

Zuckerberg said that Meta was still digesting some of the feats of DeepSeek, and his team hoped that some of the progress was implemented for his AI project.

“This is a part of this way of operation, whether it is a Chinese competitor or not.”

Zuckerberg said that although the company may eventually need less computing resources to train these powerful models, Zuckerberg said that when the software is actively running and executed, a large number of server power may be required, which will lead to “more more than High intelligence and higher intelligent service quality.

Zuckerberg said: “We serve all these people because we provide services to many people, which will be expensive.”

Zuckerberg said Meta will continue to learn from technologies such as Deepseek and release their own open source and free LLAMA AI models, which can also promote the industry.

He said: “I continue to think that over time, a large amount of investment on Capex and Infra will become a strategic advantage.” “We may learn at some time, but I just think that it is too early to call it too early. In this regard, I dare to bet on and to build this infrastructure will be a main advantage. “

Zuckerberg also said that the emergence of Deepseek confirmed Meta's commitment to AI open source methods.

He said: “There will be an open source standard in the world.” “For our own national advantages, it is important to be the standard of the United States.”
