Did the upstart Chinese tech company DeepSeek copy ChatGPT to make the artificial intelligence technology that shook Wall Street this week?

OpenAI has announced ChatGPT Gov, a new version of their premiere AI models that the company hopes will be used securely by U.S. government agencies.

OpenAI's new AI chatbot is an expansion on its flagship ChatGPT product. The new tool, ChatGPT Gov, is specifically for use by U.S. government agencies.

However, the consensus is that DeepSeek is superior to ChatGPT for more technical tasks. If you use AI chatbots for logical reasoning, coding, or mathematical equations, you might want to try DeepSeek because you might find its outputs better.

DeepSeek spent far less money on developing a chatbot than US AI companies, but it may have done so by stealing OpenAI’s IP.

The product is not approved for government use yet, but OpenAI of course hopes President Trump will speed things up.

ChatGPT will be making its way to federal, state, and local agencies. The new version comes with benefits - and concerns.
