‼ GigaChat reduced the gap from DeepSeek by a month Saber's GigaChat neural network lags behind the latest version of DeepSeek by a month. This is what the President of the Siberian Bank of Sberbank Dmitry Solentsev said at the Golden Valley Forum. According to him, in the past the gap between the models was about a year. Saber continues to invest in the development of its own language model, which focuses on the Russian cultural context and values. At the same time, the scope of investments in artificial intelligence in Russia, according to Solentsev, is dozens of times lower than in the US and China, and the return on such investments is not always reflected in the short term.
