DeepSeek has sparked a gold rush among Chinese tech startups. There's something about China's tech startups—they move fast, break things, and somehow manage to bounce back even faster when things don't go as planned.

Without the $200 per month subscription to ChatGPT pro, DeepSeek 's new generative AI model performs similar OpenAI services for free. This may further increase AI usage in academic settings, where concerns about academic integrity at Cornell have already grown.

Renowned automaker EXEED has announced its integration with world-leading AI technology company DeepSeek. DeepSeek offers significant technological advantages, with training costs of just $5.57 million (Dh20.

The move underscores Baidu's push to undercut OpenAI and DeepSeek with low-cost, high-performance AI alternatives. Ernie 4.5, a native multimodal model, processes text, images, audio, and video, with improved logical reasoning, memory, and reduced hallucinations. Baidu claims it outperforms GPT-4.5 while costing just 1% of its price.

Baidu Inc. released a new artificial intelligence model that articulates its reasoning, in an apparent bid to regain momentum against up-and-coming rivals like DeepSeek.

Baidu said its new foundation model, Ernie 4.5, 'outperforms' US-based OpenAI's GPT-4.5 model in 'multiple benchmarks'.

Chinese tech giant Alibaba said its latest AI reasoning model, QwQ-32B, "rivals cutting-edge reasoning model, e.g., DeepSeek-R1."

DeepSeek's cost disruption is just the beginning. AI's future will be defined by fast, low-cost ways to solve complex problems rather than just automate tasks. Garg says this mirrors past shifts in technology, where smaller, decentralized solutions disrupted dominant players—like PCs overtaking mainframes.
