This unexpected success, coupled with DeepSeek's claims of significantly lower development costs compared to US-based AI companies, has sent ripples through the tech industry and financial markets.

DeepSeek's chatbot has garnered praise from prominent figures like Marc Andreessen, a renowned Silicon Valley investor, who hailed it as a groundbreaking achievement in AI. The company asserts that its AI models are comparable to leading US models like ChatGPT, but at a fraction of the cost. 

They claim to have developed the app for just USD6 million (RM26 million), a stark contrast to the billions invested by US AI companies.

Here's how DeepSeek differs from other AI assistants, including ChatGPT

The DeepSeek chatbot, according to its App Store description, aims to be a helpful and efficient AI assistant, capable of answering questions and solving problems.

DeepSeek's chatbot distinguishes itself by explaining its reasoning process before providing an answer, a feature not found in popular models like ChatGPT. A user review in the App Store highlights its ability to add personality to writing, suggesting it may be a useful tool for creative tasks.

The excitement surrounding DeepSeek stems from its accessibility and potential to democratise AI. Being free, unlimited, and open-source makes it a powerful tool for developers, researchers, and users alike. This approach aligns with DeepSeek's mission to make AI more inclusive and available to everyone.

DeepSeek is now live and open source, rivaling OpenAI's Model o1

The AI chatbot is now available on both iOS and Android and it's free for everyone.
