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