Chinese AI startup DeepSeek's release of new AI models spurred a selloff in U.S. tech stocks, but some investors think the competitive concerns may be overblown.

An AI chatbot backed by the French government has been taken offline shortly after it launched, after providing nonsensical answers to simple mathematical equations and even recommending that one user eat cow’s eggs.

The DeepSeek chatbot, known as R1, responds to user queries just like its U.S.-based counterparts. Early testing released by DeepSeek suggests that its quality rivals that of other AI products, while the company says it costs less and uses far fewer specialized chips than do its competitors.

DeepSeek says its AI model is similar to US giants like OpenAI, despite fears of censorship around issues sensitive to Beijing

As with the popular TikTok alternative RedNote, Western users are finding some topics off-limits in DeepSeek R1.

Major US technology firms stocks dropped after the emergence of a low-cost chatbot built by a Chinese AI firm.

Observers are eager to see whether the Chinese company has matched America's leading AI companies at a fraction of the cost.

The AI tech DeepSeek used to train its reasoning model might be just what Apple needs for major Apple Intelligence developments on iPhone.

DeepSeek, a China-based AI company that launched a chatbot that disrupted US tech stocks and App Store rankings, has launched an AI image generator just days after its chatbot went viral. Janus-Pro is a multi-modal image generator that DeepSeek says both understands and performs better than earlier models.

According to new research a ChatGPT bot took a graduate level course at a South Carolina University and very high scores. No one noticed.

The startup DeepSeek was founded in 2023 in Hangzhou, China and released its first AI large language model later that year. Its CEO Liang Wenfeng previously co-founded one of China’s top hedge funds, High-Flyer, which focuses on AI-driven quantitative trading.
