Deepseek collects similar data to American-based AI models, but Chinese laws could make that data more accessible to the government.

The sudden rise of Chinese AI app DeepSeek has leaders in Washington and Silicon Valley grappling with how to keep the U.S. ahead in the crucial technology.

Top White House advisers this week expressed alarm that China's DeepSeek may have benefited from a method that allegedly piggybacks off the advances of U.S. rivals called "distillation."

People across China have taken to social media to hail the success of its homegrown tech startup DeepSeek and its founder, after the company unveiled its newest artificial intelligence model, sending shock waves through Silicon Valley and Wall Street.

Chinese tech company Alibaba released a new version of the Qwen 2.5 artificial intelligence model that surpasses DeepSeek's latest model.

After the Chinese startup DeepSeek surprised everyone with its AI reasoning model, OpenAI's CEO responded to that hype.

DeepSeek, a Chinese AI research lab, has released an advanced AI model which rivals leading models from OpenAI. The DeepSeek-R1 model can perform complicated mathematical reasoning, code generation, and more with fewer resources than its American competitors.
