DeepSeek: A Game-Changer for China or a Wake-Up Call for U.S. AI?
@1M40:
The Soviet Union launched the first artificial satellite, Sputnik 1, on October 4, 1957. This event marked the beginning of the Space Race between the Soviet Union and the United States. The successful launch of Sputnik 1 shocked the U.S. because it demonstrated Soviet advancements in space technology and intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) capabilities. In response, the U.S. significantly increased investments in science, technology, and education, leading to: • The creation of NASA in 1958. • The establishment of the National Defense Education Act (NDEA) to boost STEM education. • Increased funding for research and development in aerospace and military technology. This competition eventually led to major American achievements, including the Apollo 11 Moon landing in 1969. Dee
