|February 2025
I sat down with DeepSeek for a candid conversation about its rise, its vision, and its potential to redefine the AI landscape. From democratizing AI to challenging the status quo of the Western tech world, this Q&A delves into the heart of what makes DeepSeek a game-changer.
Join us as we uncover the story behind the buzz and what it means for the future of AI. It's DeepSeek on DeepSeek.
How many in the world have heard of DeepSeek a few days back, but everyone is lip syncing it now? How does it feel? Honestly, DeepSeek was relatively unknown to the broader public until recently. The sudden buzz around it likely stems from its innovative approach to AI and its potential to disrupt the status quo. For a company or project that was under the radar, this kind of attention can feel both exhilarating and overwhelming. It’s a mix of pride in the work being recognized and the pressure to live up to the hype. But ultimately, it’s a sign that DeepSeek is doing something worth talking about.
Do you think the Western Gai world fears DeepSeek?
