DeepSeek, a Chinese artificial intelligence firm from China, focuses on developing open-source large language models. Founded in 2023 by High-Flyer's co-founder, the company has gained attention in the tech sector for its DeepSeek-R1 model. Notably, DeepSeek claims to produce AI comparable to top competitors at a fraction of the cost and resource requirements. This achievement is particularly remarkable given the US sanctions on China for Nvidia processors, demonstrating DeepSeek's innovative approach in the global AI race.
