NVIDIA, a major US high -tech giant, lost more than one -sixth of its value after the Chinese artificial intelligence (AI) app surprised investors in the United States and Europe.
According to what is reported, Deepseek, a Chinese AI chatbot, has been released last week, but has already been downloaded in the United States.
Other high -tech companies, connected to AI, including the AI chip giant NVIDIA, Microsoft and Google, have seen their value falling on Monday, triggered by the sudden rise of Deepseek.
In another development, DeepSeek stated on Monday that it would temporarily limit registration for software “large -scale malicious attacks.”
Deepseek Chatbot is reported to have been developed for only a small amount of rival costs, questioning the future of the United States and the size of the investment planned by US companies.
Last week, Openai joined a group of other companies that promised to invest $ 500 million (£ 400 million) in the construction of US AI infrastructure.
One of his first announcement since returning to the office, President Donald Trump was called the “largest AI infrastructure project in history,” which helps maintain the “future of technology” in the United States.
Deepseek is equipped with an open source Deepseek -v3 model, claiming that researchers have been trained for about $ 6 million.
However, this claim is being contested by other people in AI.
Researchers say they are already using existing technology and open source code -software that anyone can use, change, or distribute for free.
The appearance of DeepSeek is that the United States restricts the sales of advanced chip technology that makes AI powerful to China.
China’s AI developers shared their work and experimented with new approaches to technology to continue working without steadily providing imported advanced chips.
This has created AI models that require much less computing power than before.
It also means that they are much lower than they had thought before.
After Deepseek-R1 was released earlier this month, the company boasts “Performon on Par” as one of the latest models of Openai if used for tasks such as mathematics, coding, and natural language inference.
Silicon Venture Capitalist, Trump’s adviser, Mark and Leisen, mentions the “AI SPUTNIK MOMENT”, mentioning satellites launched by the Soviet Union in 1957.
At that time, the United States was considered to have left the guard due to rival technical results.
The sudden popularity of DeepSeek surprised Europe and the US stock market.
In the United States, AI CHIPMAKER NVIDIA has finished trading on Monday, and rival Broadcom has dropped to 17.4 %.
Other high -tech companies have sink, Microsoft has fallen 2.14 %, and Google owner Alphabet has fallen by more than 4 %.
In Europe, the Dutch chip device maker ASML ended with a lowering of Monday stock prices by more than 7 %, and the Siemens Energy shares that create AI -related hardware have plummeted fifth.
“I was a little surprised at the market because this low -cost Chinese ideas were not always at the forefront,” said CITY INDEX’s senior market analyst, Fionacin Cotta.
“So, if you suddenly get this low -cost AI model, it will raise concerns about rival interests, especially if they are already investing in more expensive AI infrastructure.”
VEY-SERN LING, a Singapore-based Technology Equity Dubizer, told the BBC that “it could deren the entire AI supply chain,” said the BBC.
However, Wall Street Banking Giant City warned that Deep Shake could challenge the dominant position of American companies, such as opening.
“In the inevitable even more restrictive environment, US access to more advanced chips is an advantage,” the analyst stated in the report.
Meanwhile, DeepSeek said on Monday that he was a victim of cyber attacks.
“We have temporarily restricted registration to secure continuous services with large -scale malicious attacks on DeepSeek services.”
“Existing users can log in as usual. Thank you for understanding and support.”
The company was established in 2023 by Liang Wenfeng in Hangzhou, a city in southeastern China.
The age of 40, a graduate of information and electronic engineering, has also established hedge funds that support DeepSeek.
According to the report, he has built a NVIDIA A100 chip store and is now banning exports to China.
Experts believe that this collection (estimated value of 50,000) has led him to launch DeepSeek by combining these chips with cheap and low -end chips.
Lian has recently been seen at a meeting with an industry expert and a Chinese Prime Minister Tian.
In an interview with the China Academy in July 2024, his wife was surprised at his response to his previous version of his AI model.
“I didn’t expect the price setting to be such a delicate problem,” he said.
“We simply followed our pace, calculated the cost, and set the price accordingly.”
