DeepSeek founder Liang Wenfeng emphasized the company’s focus on technical milestones as it progresses toward AGI. He stated that the team is prioritizing the development of a coding agent, viewed as a critical step in the journey. On-chain data will serve a supporting role in monitoring progress. Liang stressed that products are secondary to the long-term objective of achieving artificial general intelligence.

Odaily Planet Daily reports, according to "elsewhere," 52 statements made by DeepSeek founder Liang Wenhong during previous meetings have been compiled. Liang Wenhong stated that DeepSeek currently has only one core focus: the technological path toward AGI, with products being merely "byproducts" of this journey. The most important priority at this stage remains the Coding Agent, followed by addressing continuous learning, then achieving AI self-iteration, and ultimately advancing toward embodied intelligence.

On commercialization, Liang Wenfeng stated that DeepSeek does not pursue maximum profit but instead aims for reasonable profits; open-sourcing and low pricing are part of a "restrained" strategy designed not to capture greater market share, but to increase the likelihood of ultimately achieving AGI. He also noted that DeepSeek has no intention of becoming the next super app, nor will it prioritize areas such as 3D, video generation, or world models as its current main focus.

Regarding the competition among large models, Liang Wenheng believes that future differences will primarily lie in cost, time, and user experience, with cost being the most important. He also stated that maintaining team stability is the one thing the company “cannot compromise on.”
