Liang Wenfeng, founder of DeepSeek, has shaken the AI industry with his company’s groundbreaking, open-source chatbot. Launched in January 2025, the chatbot quickly overtook ChatGPT in US iOS App Store downloads, sending shockwaves across Silicon Valley. DeepSeek's AI is up to 50 times cheaper than its competitors, causing major market losses, particularly for Nvidia. DeepSeek's rise has positioned it as a formidable competitor to OpenAI, challenging the dominance of US tech giants. Founded just 20 months ago, DeepSeek’s success signals a new era in AI, with China emerging as a leader in AI innovation.
