KI: Wegen China-Konkurrenz: Zuckerberg fordert lockerere KI-Regulierung
In den vergangenen Jahren haben chinesische Startups mit ihren KI-Modellen wiederholt international für Aufsehen gesorgt. Der Meta-Chef stellt nun Forderungen, um konkurrenzfähig zu werden.
Berlin - In response to growing pressure from low-cost Chinese competitors, Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg has called for a relaxation of US regulations governing Artificial Intelligence (AI), according to a report on Monday. Chinese developers would face fewer requirements regarding the data used to train AI compared to their counterparts in the United States, Zuckerberg stated.
Washington's government must eliminate these hurdles to make cost-effective AI competitive in the US market. Chinese startups such as DeepSeek or Moonshot have repeatedly made international news with their AI models in recent years. While technologically on par with Western products, these Chinese models are significantly cheaper due to their use of open-source and open-weight models.
Open-source refers to software whose source code is freely viewable and modifiable, examples being the Firefox browser and the Linux operating system. Open-weight models, on the other hand, allow the training data of an AI to be freely downloaded. Sources close to the matter suggest that former US President Donald Trump has proposed exempting open-weight AI from security test self-certification.
