The artificial intelligence (AI) chatbot of the Chinese company DeepSeek in recent days added thousands of users around the world, and is the main competitor of the already known ChatGPT. Those who wish to have this service can do so by following some simple steps that will allow the daily use of the tool.
DeepSeek’s AI assistant is based on DeepSeek-V3 and on Monday, January 27, it became the center of technological conversations because on the day it became the most downloaded free application in the Apple iPhone store.
One of the great advantages that DeepSeek exhibits is the cost required for its operation, much lower than the chatbots already known. Thus, the Chinese startup caught up with American companies at the forefront of generative AI and, according to the firm, for a much lower value than what other companies invested.
DeepSeek was founded in 2023 in Hangzhou, China and towards the end of that same year it launched the first large-scale AI language model on the market. It was only on January 10 that the DeepSeek-V3 model landed on American soil and in just a couple of days, it managed to position itself as the most sought-after in the field.
