DeepSeek, a Chinese AI lab, gained major attention this week as its chatbot app topped Apple App Store charts. Originating from High-Flyer Capital Management, a hedge fund, DeepSeek was established in 2023 to focus on AI research, overcoming challenges posed by U.S. hardware export bans. The company aggressively recruits innovative talent, revealing its first models in late 2023, sparking discussions about the future of AI chip demand and technology leaders in the industry.
DeepSeek's rise to fame is attributed to its compute-efficient AI models, raising questions about U.S. dominance in AI and the demand for AI chips.
Despite U.S. export bans affecting hardware access, DeepSeek has attracted attention for its innovative approach in training AI models with less powerful chips.
The company's strategy includes aggressive recruitment of doctorate AI researchers alongside candidates without computer science backgrounds to enhance model training across various subjects.
DeepSeek originated from High-Flyer Capital Management, a hedge fund leveraging AI for trading, ultimately establishing itself as a distinct entity focusing on AI research.
