Hangzhou DeepSeek, a Chinese artificial intelligence firm from China, focuses on developing advanced large language models. Founded in 2023 by Liang Wenfeng, the company has made waves in the AI industry for its DeepSeek-R1 model. Impressively, DeepSeek claims to produce AI comparable to leading models like GPT-4 at significantly lower prices and computing power. This achievement is particularly noteworthy given the US sanctions on China for Nvidia processors, demonstrating DeepSeek's technological prowess in the global AI race.
