DeepSeek, a Chinese artificial intelligence firm from China, focuses on creating open-source large language models. Established recently by Liang Wenfeng, the company has gained attention in the AI industry for its DeepSeek-R1 model. Notably, DeepSeek claims to produce AI comparable to leading models like GPT-4 at significantly lower prices and resource requirements. This breakthrough is particularly noteworthy given the US sanctions on China for advanced AI chips, demonstrating DeepSeek's technological prowess in the global AI race.
