DeepSeek's Sequel Set to Extend China's Reach in Open-Source A.I.

From: The New York Times

When the Chinese start-up DeepSeek published details about one of its artificial intelligence models last year, it sent shock waves through the tech industry.

The company said it had built its system by spending far less on computer chips than American rivals like OpenAI and Anthropic. It marked the start of what became known as China's “DeepSeek moment,” shorthand for the belief that Chinese A.I. companies were ready to showcase their technical capabilities to the world.

The DeepSeek moment reflected a shift in the global A.I. landscape. The change was about not only lower costs but also openness in how the technology is shared.

DeepSeek released its models as open source, which means others can freely use and modify them. By contrast, OpenAI and Anthropic kept their leading models proprietary. The episode demonstrated that an open-source system could perform almost as well as closed versions. In the months that followed, Chinese firms released dozens of other open-source models. By the end of 2025, these models made up a significant share of global A.I. use.

On Friday, DeepSeek released a preview of V4, its long-awaited follow-up model, which it intends to open source. The new model excels at writing computer code, an increasingly important skill for leading A.I. systems. It significantly outperformed every other open-source system at generating code, according to tests from Vals AI, a company that tracks the performance of A.I. technologies.

DeepSeek released its new model just days after Moonshot AI, another Chinese start-up, introduced its latest open-source model, Kimi 2.6. While these systems trail the coding capabilities of the leading U.S. models from Anthropic and OpenAI, the gap is narrowing.

The implications are meaningful. Using A.I. to write code is faster and frees up human programmers to focus on bigger issues. It also means people can use DeepSeek's latest release to power A.I. agents, which are personal digital assistants that can use other software applications on behalf of office workers, including spreadsheets, online calendars and email services.

As A.I. systems improve at writing computer code, they are also getting better at finding security vulnerabilities in software — a skill that is fundamentally changing cybersecurity. That means tools like DeepSeek's can be used to both attack and defend computer networks.

Across tasks, DeepSeek V4 is on a par with Moonshot's latest model. “They are basically neck and neck,” said Rayan Krishnan, the chief executive of Vals AI.

DeepSeek's Sequel Set to Extend China's Reach in Open-Source A.I.

From: The New York Times

When the Chinese start-up DeepSeek published details about one of its artificial intelligence models last year, it sent shock waves through the tech industry.

去年，中国人工智能初创企业深度求索(DeepSeek)发布了旗下一款人工智能模型的详细资料，一举震惊全球科技行业。

startup / start-up /ˈstɑːt.ʌp/ 表示“刚起步的小企业，新兴小型企业；初创公司”，英文解释为“a small business that has just been started”如：start-up costs 创业成本，举个🌰：Start-ups are very vulnerable in the business world. 商界中刚起步的小企业非常脆弱。

shock wave /ˈʃɒk ˌweɪv/ 表示“（对惊人的消息或不幸事件的）激烈反应”，英文解释为“a very strong reaction that spreads through a group of people when something surprising or bad happens”举个🌰：The assassination of the president sent shock waves across the world. 总统被刺杀的消息震惊了全世界。

The company said it had built its system by spending far less on computer chips than American rivals like OpenAI and Anthropic. It marked the start of what became known as China's “DeepSeek moment,” shorthand for the belief that Chinese A.I. companies were ready to showcase their technical capabilities to the world.

该公司宣称，其研发该系统所耗费的芯片成本远低于OpenAI和Anthropic等美国竞品。这一事件催生了所谓中国的“DeepSeek时刻”，代表着业界普遍认为中国人工智能企业已然准备好向全球展示技术实力。

chip /tʃɪp/ 1）表示“炸薯条，油炸土豆条”，英文解释为“a long, thin piece of potato that is fried and usually eaten hot”如：fish and chips 炸鱼加土豆条。

2）表示“（尤指计算机的）集成电路片，芯片”，英文解释为“a very small piece of semiconductor, especially in a computer, that contains extremely small electronic circuits and devices, and can perform particular operations”如：a silicon chip 硅芯片。

rival /ˈraɪ.vəl/ 作名词，表示“竞争对手；敌手”，英文解释为“a person, group, etc. competing with others for the same thing or in the same area”

作动词，表示“可与…相媲美，比得上”，英文解释为“to be as good, clever, beautiful, etc. as someone or something else”举个🌰：No computer can rival a human brain for/in complexity. 没有任何计算机比得上人脑复杂。

1）表示“简约表达法；代称”，英文解释为“You can use shorthand to mean a quick or simple way of referring to something.”举个🌰：He uses the shorthand of "second age" for the group of younger people who are creating families. 他用“第二代”来简单指称那些更年轻、正在组建家庭的人。

2）表示“速记（法）”，英文解释为“Shorthand is a quick way of writing and uses signs to represent words or syllables. Shorthand is sometimes used by secretaries and journalists to write down what someone is saying.”举个🌰：He took notes in shorthand. 他用速记法记笔记。

The DeepSeek moment reflected a shift in the global A.I. landscape. The change was about not only lower costs but also openness in how the technology is shared.

“DeepSeek时刻”折射出全球人工智能格局的转变。这场变革不仅体现在成本的降低，还体现在技术共享模式的开放性。

landscape /ˈlænd.skeɪp/ 表示“乡间，野外；（尤指乡村的）风景，景色”，英文解释为“a large area of countryside, especially in relation to its appearance”如：a rural/barren landscape 乡村/荒原；也可以表示“局面”，英文解释为“A landscape is all the features that are important in a particular situation.”

DeepSeek released its models as open source, which means others can freely use and modify them. By contrast, OpenAI and Anthropic kept their leading models proprietary. The episode demonstrated that an open-source system could perform almost as well as closed versions. In the months that followed, Chinese firms released dozens of other open-source models. By the end of 2025, these models made up a significant share of global A.I. use.

DeepSeek将旗下模型以开源形式发布，意味着他人可自由使用和修改这些模型。OpenAI与Anthropic则将其领先模型作为专有技术保留。此次事件印证：开源系统的性能水准已接近封闭自研模型。此后数月，多家中国企业陆续推出数十款开源模型。截至2025年末，这些模型已占据全球人工智能应用相当大的份额。

表示“（稍作）修改，更改，改造，改变”，英文解释为“to change something such as a plan, opinion, law, or way of behaviour slightly, usually to improve it or make it more acceptable”举个🌰：The proposals were unpopular and were only accepted in a modified form. 这些建议不受欢迎，修改之后才得以接受。

proprietary /prəˈpraɪə.tər.i/ 1）表示“所有（人）的，业主的”，英文解释为“relating to owning something, or relating to or like an owner”举个🌰：I just assumed he owned the place - he had a proprietary air about him. 我想当然地以为这个地方是他的——他有一副主人的架势。

2）表示“专有的；专卖的”，英文解释为“Proprietary goods are made and sent out by a particular company whose name is on the product.”如：proprietary medicines 专卖药品。

在电视/电影节目中，episode /ˈep.ɪ.səʊd/ 表示“一集，一节，片断”（one of the single parts into which a story is divided, especially when it is broadcast on the television or radio），也可以指“事件；（相关的）一连串事件；一段经历”，英文解释为“a single event or group of related events”举个🌰：This latest episode in the fraud scandal has shocked a lot of people. 诈骗丑闻最新爆出的这一事件让很多人瞠目结舌。还可以指「疾病的发作，发病」，英文解释为：a finite period in which someone is affected by a specified illness.

补充：

📍第几集用的是Episode，第几季则为Season. 你下载美剧时可能就会看到S01E02，就是指的第1季第2集。最后一集 finale：the last part of a piece of music or of a show, event etc （演出的）终场，最后一幕；（音乐的）终曲；（事件等的）结尾。

🎬还有，看剧时新一集开头通常会有的一个说法：previously on ...，...的前情提要，前情回顾。

On Friday, DeepSeek released a preview of V4, its long-awaited follow-up model, which it intends to open source. The new model excels at writing computer code, an increasingly important skill for leading A.I. systems. It significantly outperformed every other open-source system at generating code, according to tests from Vals AI, a company that tracks the performance of A.I. technologies.

上周五，DeepSeek发布了备受期待的新一代模型V4的预览版本，该模型同样计划全面开源。这款新模型在代码编写领域表现突出，代码能力已成为顶尖人工智能系统日益重要的技能。人工智能测评机构Vals AI的测试结果显示，深度求索V4的代码生成能力显著优于其他所有开源AI模型。

excel /ɪkˈsel/ 表示“擅长；善于；突出”，英文解释为“to be very good at doing sth”举个🌰：She has always excelled in foreign languages. 她的外语从来都是出类拔萃。

📍2019年政府工作报告Part 5中就提到：体育健儿在国际大赛上再创佳绩。Chinese athletes excelled themselves in international competitions.

🎬电影《热血警探》（Blue Fury）中的台词提到：Academically excelled in theoretical course work and final year examinations. 在校期间理论课成绩和年终测评均为优，

outperform /ˌaʊt.pəˈfɔːm/ 表示“超过，胜过；比…做得好”，英文解释为“to do well in a particular job or activity compared to others of a similar type”举个🌰：The company has consistently outperformed its rivals this season. 这一季，这家公司的表现一直优于竞争对手。

DeepSeek released its new model just days after Moonshot AI, another Chinese start-up, introduced its latest open-source model, Kimi 2.6. While these systems trail the coding capabilities of the leading U.S. models from Anthropic and OpenAI, the gap is narrowing.

就在DeepSeek发布新款模型的短短数日前，中国另一家AI初创企业月之暗面推出了最新开源模型Kimi 2.6。尽管这类系统在代码编写能力方面仍略逊于Anthropic和OpenAI等美国领先模型，但差距正持续缩小。

trail /treɪl/ 作名词表示“小路，小径”如：a forest/mountain trail 林间/山间小道，以及“臭迹；踪迹；痕迹；蛛丝马迹，线索”等意思，英文解释为“the smell or series of marks left by a person, animal, or thing as it moves along；various pieces of information that together show where someone you are searching for has gone”举个🌰：The dogs are trained to follow the trail left by the fox. 这些狗经过特别的训练，能够追踪狐狸留下的气味。

2）表示“（比赛中）落后，失败”，英文解释为“to be losing to your competitor in a competition”举个🌰：The Canadian team is trailing by six points. 加拿大队落后了6分。

The implications are meaningful. Using A.I. to write code is faster and frees up human programmers to focus on bigger issues. It also means people can use DeepSeek's latest release to power A.I. agents, which are personal digital assistants that can use other software applications on behalf of office workers, including spreadsheets, online calendars and email services.

这一趋势意义深远。人工智能自动编写代码不仅速度更快，还能让程序员腾出时间专注于更重要的问题。同时，依托DeepSeek的最新模型，开发者可构建人工智能agent，这种个人数字助手能够代表办公室职员自主操作其他软件应用程序，包括电子表格、在线日历、邮件系统等服务。
