It is basically a AI powered chatbot that is owned by <strong>Beijing DeepSeek Artificial Intelligence Basic Technology Research Co., Ltd<\/strong> which was founded back in by Liang Wenfeng, the founding CEO of DeepSeek.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It works on advancing artificial intelligence (AI) technology and particularly in the field of&nbsp;<strong>Artificial General Intelligence (AGI)<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Whoever don&#8217;t know &#8211; AGI refers to AI systems that can think, learn, and perform tasks like humans, rather than being limited to specific tasks (like current AI, which is often specialized for things like image recognition or language translation).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In simple words, DeepSeek is basically a similar AI chatbot like ChatGPT that is able to do various works on it&#8217;s own using AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Run DeepSeek R1 Locally.

So, the use cases of the ai chatbot is somewhere similar to ChatGPT. The below are the given steps to use DeepSeek effectively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Visit the official website of DeepSeek.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Access APIs or Platforms.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Do Signup on the website.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Now you can use it to do your desired work by simple give it a prompt. You can use it for mostly all AI related work like for data analysis, generating code, articles, building chatbot for customer service etc.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"DeepSeek_Models_Pricing\"><\/span>DeepSeek Models &amp; Pricing :<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The below are the DeepSeek models and it&#8217;s pricing.

Even one X user showed with same prompt DeepSeek works better.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now I can&#8217;t tell about the pro versions of these two AI chatbots. But I think two of these chatbots have their pro and cons. While with the free version of DeepSeek, you can&#8217;t generate image or do extra curricular things apart from texting, even it couldn&#8217;t even read picture, or uploaded documents, that free version of ChatGPT easily does.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But on ChatGPT you can&#8217;t upload any very lengthy code or message, it probably has some text length limit that DeepSeek doesn&#8217;t have. Besides sometime I also feel DeepSeek works better than ChatGPT. So, it depends on your use cases.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_is_All_the_Hype\"><\/span>Why is All the Hype?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>There are several reasons behind DeepSeek&#8217;s sudden popularity. But the main reason is its new AI model, DeepSeek-R1, is performing exceptionally well, almost matching the performance of OpenAI\u2019s top model. What\u2019s even more impressive is that it&#8217;s much more affordable. For example, using DeepSeek-R1&#8217;s API costs significantly less than its competitors, making it an attractive option for developers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_ChatGPT_Sees_DeepSeek\"><\/span>How ChatGPT Sees DeepSeek?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Overall ChatGPT generally does answer what we look for and here also it does the same. When asking about DeepSeek, it gives an overall idea of it. But sometimes it shows some drawbacks about it including privacy concerns etc. It might just be a part of it&#8217;s answer. But it was unusual, so I thought to write about it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"769\" height=\"433\" src=\"https:\/\/aimonky.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Add-a-heading-2025-02-06T015834.609.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-463\" srcset=\"https:\/\/aimonky.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Add-a-heading-2025-02-06T015834.609.webp 769w, https:\/\/aimonky.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Add-a-heading-2025-02-06T015834.609-300x169.webp 300w, https:\/\/aimonky.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Add-a-heading-2025-02-06T015834.609-150x84.webp 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 769px) 100vw, 769px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><strong>Photo by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pexels.com\/photo\/black-magnifying-glass-221164\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Pixabay<\/a><\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"FAQs\"><\/span>FAQs :<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h1>\n\n\n\n<p>The below are the frequently asked questions about DeepSeek on Internet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Who_is_the_founder_of_DeepSeek\"><\/span>Who is the founder of DeepSeek?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>As of the details available online, Liang Wenfeng is the founding CEO of DeepSeek.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Is_DeepSeek_Safe\"><\/span>Is DeepSeek Safe?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>DeepSeek is generally considered safe but as it&#8217;s a Chinese origin application, they might collect your personal informations.
