Recently the launch of low cost foundational model DEEPSEEK by Chinese Artificial intelligence lab has given India a boost to build its own domestic large language model (LLM) of its own. It will be a part of 10,370 crore India Artificial Intelligence mission.

Deepseek has raised a virtual storm worldwide. The AI model, which have been open-sourced, are supposed to have been built using just 2,000 Nvidia H800 GPUs, matching the performance of leading systems like OpenAI’s ChatGPT 4.0, but at a fraction of the cost (just $ 6 million for its final training).

DeepSeek is open source, which is very important, as it allows users to download the models and run them on their own hardware if they have the capacity.

Some have hailed DeepSeek’s emergence as “AI’s Sputnik moment”, while others have expressed scepticism about the origins and actual costs of its rapid advancement.
