In the tech world passing through the AI, the Chinese Startup Deepsek has created a stir. The AI model of the company, which was available for download this month, has beaten Openai’s chatgpt. US President Donald Trump has described it as a danger bell for his country’s companies, while Openai CEO Sam Altman also could not stop himself without praising Deepsek. Let us know when Deepsek started and how it has made a splash in the tech world.
The company started in 2023
Deepsek started in 2023. Its CEO is Leiang Venfeng. He was the founder of a hedge fund called High-Flire. This fund has done full funding of Deepsek. In 2022, the company bought an A100 graphic processor chip with around 10,000 high performance from NVIDIA. With its help, she was successful in creating her first AI system. After this, the US banned giving this chip to China. Now Deepsek has said that its recent AI model is made up with the help of NVIDIA’s law-performance H800 chip. This is being considered as an answer to America.
Shocked everyone by creating an affordable AI model
The AI Assistant of Deepseek has left behind the chatgpt of Openai in terms of downloading. It has reached the top of the most downloaded apps on Apple App Store in many countries of the world including America. The expenditure on this model has shocked the world. Deepsek says its latest AI model is ready for just $ 5.6 million. This expenditure is so low that many people are unable to trust it. Such a low cost has also brought American companies under suspicion, which are investing heavy in the name of AI. Using the Deepseek-R1 released last week is 20-50 times cheaper than the O1 model of Openai on the basis of work.
Shares of American companies fall drastically
Meta announced last week that it would spend $ 65 billion on the development of AI. Openai’s CEO Sam Altman said last year that the AI industry needs billions and trillions of investment. Now the Chinese company has brought these announcements and estimates under suspicion by bringing a cheap model. This has also affected the shares of companies. After the news of cheap AI model came out, the NASDAQ in the US market saw a decline of 3.1 percent, while S&P 500 was broken up to 1.5 percent. Its impact was seen on America as well as markets around the world.
Deepsek brought China again in the match
America was at the forefront of the AI model race with Chatgpt. China had launched ERNIE Bot in comparison to this. It was prepared by Biodu, but it could not live up to the expectations of the people. At that time it was said that it is difficult for Chinese companies to compete with America in this area, but now Deepsek has overturned this game. Its quality and low price has once again brought China to the match. Deepsek says that its V3 and R1 models are against Openai and Meta’s most advanced models.
Chinese government happy
The success of Deepsek has also come as a big success for the Chinese government. Despite all the sanctions from the US, Deepseek is competing with the companies there. It has also received a sigh of relief from the Chinese government. On January 20, on the launch of the Deepsek-R1 model, the company’s CEO Liang met with the Prime Minister of China. On the other hand, it has increased the tension of Donald Trump. They have called it a ‘wakeup call’ for American companies.
Company’s road difficult in India
Deepseek may have been in the headlines all over the world, but its path in India is going to be difficult. Actually, the government wants to reduce dependence on Chinese technology and now Indian companies are importing GPU and other AI technology from America. The Government of India has already blocked several apps including tickets and has also banned the equipment of Chinese companies like Huawei and ZTE in the country. In such a situation, spreading your feet in India is going to be challenging for Deepsek.
