As ChatGPT celebrates its first birthday this week, Chinese startup DeepSeek AI is moving to take on its dominance with its own conversational AI offering: DeepSeek Chat.
Launched as part of an alpha test, the assistant taps 7B and 67B-parameter DeepSeek LLMs, trained on a dataset of 2 trillion tokens in English and Chinese. According to benchmarks, both these models deliver strong performance across a range of evaluations, including coding and mathematics, and match (sometimes even outperform) Meta’s famous Llama 2-70B.
The news marks the entry of another Chinese player into the AI race, following the recent releases from Qwen, 01.AI and Baidu. DeepSeek said it has open-sourced the models – both base and instruction-tuned versions – to foster further research within both academic and commercial communities.
The company, which was founded a few months ago to unravel the mystery of AGI with curiosity, also permits commercial usage under certain terms.
DeepSeek Chat is making waves in China. Launched last month, DeepSeek is a GPT (Generative Pre-trained Transformer) chatbot that offers users a fully automated conversation experience. Offering a 67 billion parameter model, DeepSeek is shaking up the competition with its powerful capabilities.
DeepSeek claims to be the first Chinese chatbot to land in the 3500+ parameter GPT model, boasting a 67 billion parameter model for natural language understanding and response. The special GPT-based model enables DeepSeek to obtain an accurate natural language understanding with the same input data as competitors, while providing a more human-like response.
This advanced technology allows DeepSeek to provide users with a conversation experience that is both efficient and accurate. Through conversational “digging,” DeepSeek is able to accurately answer questions and recommend services to match users’ intent. This makes DeepSeek an ideal bot for customer service tasks.
The DeepSeek platform also makes use of some of the latest tools and technology to optimize its processing speed and accuracy. This includes the use of advanced deep learning algorithms such as AutoML (automated machine learning) to further enhance the system’s performance and maximize its accuracy.
On a technical level, DeepSeek takes advantage of Cloud TPUs (tensor processing units) to make it even faster. The Cloud TPUs allow DeepSeek to remain efficient and cost-effective in the long run.
Overall, DeepSeek is an impressive chatbot for customer service and other conversational applications. Its sophisticated GPT model provides a natural language understanding and offers a human-like response. The advanced algorithms used by the platform also ensure enhanced processing speed and accuracy.
