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 gained attention in the AI industry for its DeepSeek-R1 model. Impressively, DeepSeek claims to produce AI rivaling leading models like GPT-4 at significantly lower prices and resource requirements. This achievement is particularly noteworthy given the US sanctions on China for advanced AI chips, demonstrating DeepSeek's innovative approach in the global AI race.
