In a performance comparison in 2025, DeepSeek's AI model DeepSeek-R1 showed remarkable performance, showing results on-par with OpenAI's OpenAI-01-1217 model. This result has garnered a lot of attention because DeepSeek's model is considered to be notably more efficient and was trained with a significantly lower budget. In addition to that, it has shown the capabilities of the Chinese artificial intelligence industry despite being sanctioned by the United States.
