DeepSeek, a Chinese AI company based in Hangzhou, focuses on developing open-source large language models. Established recently by Liang Wenfeng, the company has made waves in the AI industry for its DeepSeek-R1 model. Impressively, DeepSeek claims to produce AI comparable to top competitors at a fraction of the cost and computing power. This achievement is particularly noteworthy given the US sanctions on China for Nvidia processors, demonstrating DeepSeek's innovative approach in the competitive AI landscape.
