DeepSeek, a Chinese artificial intelligence firm based in Hangzhou, specializes in creating 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 claims to produce AI rivaling top competitors at significantly lower prices and computing power.
