Hangzhou DeepSeek, a Chinese artificial intelligence firm from China, focuses on 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. Impressively, DeepSeek claims to produce AI rivaling 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 advanced AI chips, showcasing DeepSeek's innovative approach in the competitive AI landscape.
