Hangzhou DeepSeek, a Chinese artificial intelligence firm from China, specializes in 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. Notably, DeepSeek has developed AI rivaling leading models like GPT-4 at a fraction of the cost and computing power.
