DeepSeek
A Chinese AI lab famous for strong open models at very low cost.
DeepSeek is a Chinese research lab that shook the industry by releasing models close to the frontier as open weights, trained for a fraction of what Western labs spend. Anyone can download and run its models.
For CourionAI readers, DeepSeek matters because it keeps pushing prices down and quality up across the whole industry, which shapes the tools everyone uses.
