Key Points

Chinese AI firms have surpassed Deepseek's models, with Xiaomi's model now far better.
Deepseek remains stuck on version 3.2 with minor updates despite ample resources and international attention.
They have not released a credible multimodal model yet.
The author questions whether Deepseek is out of the race and unable to compete with frontier Chinese and US firms unless they deliver a truly groundbreaking product.
The piece highlights the need for a major, noticeable breakthrough to regain competitiveness.

Almost all the Chinese AI companies have surpassed their models. Even Xiaomi now has a far better model. They are still somehow stuck in v 3.2 with minor updates. They supposedly have so much resources now that they have international attention. They haven't even released a decent multimodal model. Are they just out of race at this point? I don't see how they can even compete with frontier Chinese AI companies, much less than frontier US companies unless they release something that's truly groundbreaking in every way.
