Chinese AI lab DeepSeek shows China can't be counted out as a serious player when it comes to AI , tech executives tell CNBC .

Still, tech leaders largely agree that the threat the Chinese lab poses to well-funded U.S. AI labs such as OpenAI remains limited for now.

Experts say the West 's understanding of China is limited and don't know what's coming next.

DeepSeek may have been able to achieve such a high level of performance by training its models on larger U.S. AI systems.

This technique, known as "distillation," involves having more powerful AI models evaluate the quality of answers being generated by a newer model.

"Most of the market fear around [DeepSeek] is in fact misplaced," said Hoffman .
