DeepSeek, a Chinese artificial intelligence firm from China, specializes in developing advanced large language models. Established recently by Liang Wenfeng, the company has gained attention in the tech sector for its latest AI developments. Impressively, DeepSeek claims to produce AI comparable to leading models like GPT-4 at a fraction of the cost and computing power. This breakthrough is particularly remarkable given the US sanctions on China for Nvidia processors, showcasing DeepSeek's technological prowess in the global AI race.
