Hangzhou DeepSeek, a Chinese AI company from China, focuses on developing open-source large language models. Established recently by Liang Wenfeng, the company has gained attention in the tech sector for its DeepSeek-R1 model. Notably, DeepSeek has developed AI rivaling 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.
