The recent release of DeepSeek, an open source artificial intelligence (AI) model has sent shock waves through the US tech giants. The DeepSeek model was developed at a fraction of the cost incurred by its US counterparts like OpenAI. This event signifies China’s growing prowess in AI, challenging Western tech giants’ long-standing dominance. Despite US export restrictions, China is progressing towards creating faster and more efficient technologies. Deepseek is cost efficient, which is welcome news as conventional AI models are power hungry and water-intensive.
DeepSeek highlights the significant growth Chinese innovation, along with its space missions and advanced chip production. It truly seems like the country of the future.
