Deep Seek

DeepSeek is an advanced, open-source artificial intelligence developed by Hangzhou DeepSeek Artificial Intelligence Basic Technology Research Co. in China. It is designed to handle complex tasks like natural language processing, deep reasoning, and high-level coding assistance.

Unlike many proprietary models, DeepSeek is known for its "open-weight" approach, meaning its model parameters are shared openly, making it a favorite among developers and researchers looking for a transparent alternative to tools like ChatGPT or Claude.
