DeepSeek, a Chinese artificial intelligence firm based in Hangzhou, specializes in developing advanced large language models. Established recently by Liang Wenfeng, the company has made waves in the AI industry for its DeepSeek-R1 model. Notably, DeepSeek claims to produce AI rivaling leading models like GPT-4 at a fraction of the cost and computing power. This breakthrough is particularly noteworthy given the US sanctions on China for Nvidia processors, showcasing DeepSeek's technological prowess in the competitive AI landscape.
