How buzz on Chinese AI model DeepSeek sparked massive Nasdaq sell-off

A Chinese AI startup, DeepSeek, has recently caused a stir in the U.S. technology market, leading to a significant decline in the stocks of major tech companies. This young company, founded by Liang Wenfeng in May 2023, has introduced a new reasoning model called R1, which has outperformed the latest models from Open AI in various tests.

DeepSeek’s approach to AI is unique as it focuses on enhancing the accuracy of its responses by generating a “chain of thought” before providing the final answer. This reasoning capability has set DeepSeek apart from its competitors and garnered attention from industry experts and investors alike.

The buzz around DeepSeek reached a peak when CEO Alexandr Wang of Scale AI praised the company’s R1 model, placing it on par with the best American models. This endorsement, along with positive reviews from prominent figures like Marc Andreessen and Chamath Palihapitiya, propelled DeepSeek’s mobile app to the number one spot on Apple’s app store download charts.

As a result of DeepSeek’s rising popularity, U.S. tech stocks experienced a significant downturn, with Nvidia seeing a 16.9% drop in its shares, marking its worst performance since March 2020. The Nasdaq Composite also took a hit, falling more than 3% on Monday due to the decline in megacap names.

Overall, DeepSeek’s emergence has raised questions about the dominance of American tech giants in the AI sector and highlighted the growing competition from Chinese AI startups. Investors and industry experts are closely watching DeepSeek’s progress as it continues to disrupt the AI market with its innovative models and reasoning capabilities.
