Episode 104. Deepseek Part 2

DeepSeek is a Chinese company that's making big waves in the world of Artificial Intelligence (AI). They've created powerful AI models that can do things like: * Chat with people: Just like ChatGPT, you can have a conversation with DeepSeek's AI and it can answer your questions or even write stories. * Understand and respond to complex requests: DeepSeek's AI is really good at understanding what you mean, even if you ask complicated questions. * Work with different kinds of information: It can handle text, images, and even code! What makes DeepSeek special is that they've been able to create these powerful AI models at a much lower cost than some of the bigger companies in the US. This has surprised a lot of people and made them wonder how DeepSeek is able to do so much with less. DeepSeek's technology has caused a bit of a stir because: * It's challenging the dominance of US companies in AI: For a while, companies like Google and OpenAI were seen as the leaders in AI. DeepSeek is showing that other companies can also create impressive AI technology. * It's raising questions about national security: Some people in the US government are worried about the implications of a Chinese company having such advanced AI technology. DeepSeek is a relatively new company, but they're already making a big impact. It will be interesting to see what they do next and how their technology shapes the future of AI.
