Elon Musk, known for his provocative comments, has brushed off the controversial report from the China-based AI firm DeepSeek with a simple word: “Overhyped.” This report, which questioned the scalability and near-term profitability of AI technology, triggered a selloff in the U.S. stock market, erasing billions from the valuations of major tech companies. DeepSeek’s findings have raised alarms about the actual potential of AI, prompting investors to reevaluate their positions in the overheated tech sector. However, Musk’s brief response has sparked a renewed debate over the validity of the report’s claims and the overall direction of AI development. Musk, who has consistently cautioned about the risks associated with AI while also heavily investing in the field through his ventures like xAI, Neuralink, and Tesla’s AI projects, seemed to dismiss the pessimism generated by DeepSeek. His tweet has since gained traction, with both supporters and critics weighing in on its significance. As markets continue to fluctuate, analysts are closely monitoring tech stock performance in light of the controversy. Musk’s one-word response has become a symbol of the larger discussion: is AI being overhyped, or are concerns about its limitations unfounded?
