Just a week after Anthropic introduced <span section=\"shortcodeLink\"><span>version 4.7 of its Claude Opus AI model<\/span><\/span>, OpenAI <span section=\"shortcodeLink\"><span>unveiled GPT-5.5<\/span><\/span>, and China&#8217;s DeepSeek introduced a preview release of its V4 AI model.<\/p>\n<p class=\"u-speakableText-p2\">The companies, which have all been jockeying for greater adoption and consumer and business use by extending and improving their AI model offerings, are trying to bring something new to the table as the tech industry continues to invest billions into these technologies.<\/p>\n<p>  <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\" alt=\"CNET AI Atlas badge; click to see more\" height=\"268.105702364395\" width=\"768\" loading=\"lazy\"\/>   <\/p>\n<p>The newest offerings, DeepSeek&#8217;s V4 Flash and V4 Pro AI models, are focused on reasoning and agentic AI tasks, with the Chinese company&#8217;s latest work using a Hybrid Attention Architecture. DeepSeek said this allows its models to keep query histories in mind even over a lengthy series of prompts. V4 also allows longer documents or code to be used as prompts, and the company said it has made architectural and optimization improvements. The models can also be deployed on cheaper hardware than other AI, which could lower costs for companies that want to use them.<\/p>\n<p>Early last year, DeepSeek\u00a0emerged seemingly out of nowhere\u00a0to disrupt the established order of AI with cheaper models that rivaled those of the top ones. Since then, the company has become caught up in a backlash against Chinese AI companies; this week, the White House lashed out against Chinese AI, accusing China of widespread technology theft.<\/p>\n<h2>OpenAI&#8217;s latest<\/h2>\n<p>OpenAI, which has accused DeepSeek of using its models to create its own, this week made ChatGPT 5.5 available as part of the rollout of GPT-5.5 for paying subscribers. The focus of this latest version is coding, computer use and research, with some improvements that OpenAI said make it more intuitive to use with less human guidance.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It really feels like it&#8217;s setting the foundation for how we&#8217;re going to do computer work going forward, or how agent computing at scale will work,&#8221; Greg&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnet.com\/tech\/services-and-software\/openai-deepseek-anthropic-new-ai-models\/\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>AI Arms Race Accelerates With New Models from OpenAI, DeepSeek and Anthropic https:\/\/www.cnet.com\/tech\/services-and-software\/openai-deepseek-anthropic-new-ai-models\/ Publish Date:&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":235292,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.cnet.com\/a\/img\/resize\/f0803bcc4492562c6e61d44a787cd829f014efa3\/hub\/2025\/02\/12\/072b3f92-538b-4254-b666-8692c9279ba4\/deepseek-ai-9734.jpg?auto=webp&fit=crop&height=675&width=1200","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[14],"tags":[20],"class_list":["post-235291","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-artificial-intelligence","tag-artificial-intelligence"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/235291"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=235291"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/235291\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":235293,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/235291\/revisions\/235293"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/235292"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=235291"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=235291"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=235291"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
