Beyond DeepSeek: Exploring China’s growing AI powerhouses – Here’s a look at other major players
Chinese AI firm DeepSeek has shaken up global markets with its claim that its R1 model can compete with OpenAI’s offerings, despite relying on less advanced computer chips and consuming significantly less energy. DeepSeek’s breakthrough has sparked fears that China might be catching up to, or even surpassing, the U.S. in the AI race, despite the country’s limited access to top-tier chips. This development is part of China’s broader push to dominate the AI field by 2030 and outpace the U.S. in the battle for technological supremacy.
