DeepSeek

DeepSeek is a leading Chinese AI research lab known for releasing high-performance open-weight models that rival proprietary US models. They are particularly renowned for their coding models (DeepSeek Coder) and efficient Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) architectures.

DeepSeek has played a crucial role in the open-source community by providing powerful, accessible alternatives for developers who need to run models locally or on private infrastructure.
