DeepSeek, a Chinese AI company based in Hangzhou, specializes in creating open-source large language models. Established recently by Liang Wenfeng, the company has made waves in the AI industry for its DeepSeek-R1 model. Notably, DeepSeek has developed AI comparable to leading models like GPT-4 at significantly lower prices and resource requirements. This achievement is particularly noteworthy given the US sanctions on China for Nvidia processors, demonstrating DeepSeek's innovative approach in the global AI race.
