Today, the contents of a DeepSeek investor conference came out. Among them, Liang Wenfeng's explanation of DeepSeek's organizational culture, open source logic, technology roadmap, and views on the competitive landscape of the industry attracted attention. During the sharing, Liang Wenfeng pointed out that when he first started working with DeepSeek, his original intention was not to expect how much money he would make in the end, to go to the capital market and go public. The team did this with great goodwill for the world, and then we thought this was useful to humans; this was something other than money. Of course, later, after finding out that this matter was very profitable, there were other temptations, but the team maintained its current vision and did not do it in a way that maximized commercial interests. Open source is a product of the company's vision. Liang Wenfeng pointed out, “Because this vision itself requires open source, you don't have this vision, you can't organize people. For us, this is our intention.” In his view, open source is first and foremost driven by the company's vision. Second, if the AI thing is to be done commercially, open source is also beneficial. In his opinion, it is impossible for one person to have a monopoly on this; you must share it with others, otherwise you definitely won't survive. This may be different from the previous open source software, because the software market isn't that big, but the AI thing is too big. If we want to monopolize this benefit, then it must be abandoned by history. This is an objective rule. “You need to have a mechanism to ensure that the benefits you can reap are limited, then you can do it. You need restraint. You can't think that 100% of human GDP belongs to me, or that China's GDP is all mine. The more you think this way, the less you can do it.” Liang Wenfeng put it bluntly.
