DeepSeek, a Chinese artificial intelligence firm from China, specializes in creating open-source large language models. Established recently by High-Flyer's co-founder, the company has gained attention in the AI industry for its latest AI developments. Notably, DeepSeek has developed AI comparable to leading models like GPT-4 at a fraction of the cost and resource requirements. This achievement is particularly remarkable given the US sanctions on China for Nvidia processors, demonstrating DeepSeek's technological prowess in the global AI race.
