The Rise of DeepSeek AI

DeepSeek AI originating from the hedge fund High-Flyer has already put Chat GPT behind when it comes to no. of downloads on the App Store in the U.S but wait this is just one part of the story. Lets deep dive further to know how it started and what it has to offer.
The Competitive AI Market: Who Dominates?
In the world of Artificial Intelligence there are giants ruling the world. Few of them are OpenAI, Google, Microsoft who have been there since a considerable amount of time with a huge number of people actually relying upon these tools for better productivity and seamless workflows with minimum or no errors. A great revolution in the tech industry that has changed how people work and their workflows.
DeepSeek AI’s Impact and Initial Buzz
While we know about multiple AI tools already present and competing against each other, DeepSeek AI launched on this Monday suddenly creates a huge buzz around it. It took the internet talking about it in no time. As we see everything working well for this Chinese AI tool there is a lot that didn’t go well for few people and companies. The launch of DeepSeek AI shook the internet and changed the industry completely by its offerings and promises.
How DeepSeek AI Stands Out
What ChatGPT used to offer for a subscription, the same thing DeepSeek AI was offering for no extra cost. They also claimed it to be faster and more accurate as compared to other AI tools. After knowing about all of this, people changed their perspectives and decisions towards ChatGPT.
People unsubscribed from the OpenAI platform and started using DeepSeek AI. This change also created impacts on a global level. Promise of DeepSeek to deliver the best performance on low end devices also caused a lot of disturbance in tech manufacturing companies and their finances.
The Team Behind DeepSeek AI
All of this done by a couple of young minds who wanted to make their mark in the world by doing something brilliant to make themselves proud.
All gathered from different universities who had been studying and being published in news or other channels but never got industry experiences or lacked confidence.
These bright minds walked altogether in one direction focusing on one common goal everyone wanted to achieve.
As we say together we can make change and they have set this up as an example by making everyone either look for them or talk about them.
Functionality of DeepSeek AI

Now let me take you further into the functioning of DeepSeek AI. This AI tool uses LLM (Large Language Models) with minimal computational power and more software optimisations. The following are the key aspects:
1. Efficient Model Architecture
It that allows DeepSeek to deliver better performance even with hardware limitations.
2. Software Driven Optimizations
It allow them to dodge challenges of Hardware Limitations and problems in terms of US export control over high performance chips.
3. DeepSeek-R1
It allows collaborations by providing API as an open source code for using it to customise and fine tune and use it as per individuals requirement. This will also help them gain insights and improvise.
4. Competing performance
Despite it using less computational power it has been optimised so well to competitively perform well against the other AI tools. This optimisation also provides it a benefit in tasks that demand regional language understanding and generation.
As mentioned earlier it also has a huge advantage over geopolitical and economical constraints such as requirement of high end GPUs.
Just trying to say, this group of young kids have just explained to the world that the software and algorithm optimisation can offset hardware limitations.
Advantages of DeepSeek AI
DeepSeek AI offers advantages specially for developers and researchers with a focus on efficiency, affordability and accessibility. Few of the advantages are:
1. Cost Effective
Designed in such a way that it does not demand expensive high end chipsets for high end performance and efficient working. Less dependency on hardware also means affordable ownership and maintenance costs.
2. Open Source
The software is available for everyone to customise and tweak it according to their needs and tailor it for their use cases.
3. Transparent AI
Open Source models like DeepSeek offer greater insights to understand better the AI functions, their customisation and improvement.
4. Reduced Dependencies
This allows people to be less dependent on market leaders and give a chance to uprising platforms allowing costs to come down.
5. Scalability
Its open source availability and affordability allows it to scale rapidly for both small scale projects and large scale enterprises.
After knowing the advantages lets understand the scenarios or application cases for different industries. Some key application scenarios are Natural Language Processing (NLP), Conversational AI, Education and Learning, Business solutions, Content creation, Research, Personalized AI tools, etc.
FAQ’s
DeepSeek AI is developed by High-Flyer, a Chinese hedge fund specializing in artificial intelligence and financial technology.
No, DeepSeek AI optimizes software to reduce dependency on high-end NVIDIA chips, overcoming hardware limitations and geopolitical restrictions.
Yes, DeepSeek AI offers its services for free, providing advanced AI capabilities without requiring a subscription, unlike ChatGPT’s premium plans.
Conclusion
After all that we have known for now, the tool has its own advantages and comes with a lot of features pretty enough to convince any user who takes help of AI powered search or AI search engine in day to day life.
Where we know it has its own advantages but the U.S govt is hesitant as well in terms of trusting a Chinese platform with their data.
We Indians also would definitely have our own reservations here to take a call if we really need a Chinese platform with some extra features at no extra cost or would we like to pay a nominal amount to get our work done efficiently saving time and having to work with trustable platforms with your data.
