Deepseek collects similar data to American-based AI models, but Chinese laws could make that data more accessible to the government.

The sudden rise of Chinese AI app DeepSeek has leaders in Washington and Silicon Valley grappling with how to keep the U.S. ahead in the crucial technology.

An AI-powered chatbot by the Chinese company DeepSeek has quickly become the most downloaded free app on Apple's store, following its January release in the US. The app has sparked chaos in the US markets and raised questions about the future of America's AI dominance.

Alibaba claims that its Qwen2.5-Max artificial intelligence model outperformed its rivals at OpenAI, Meta and DeepSeek.

Alibaba says it's new artificial intelligence model is superior to DeepSeek. It says the Qwen 2.5 Max edition scored better than Meta Platforms Inc.’s Llama and DeepSeek’s V3 model in various tests. Matthew Bloxham of Bloomberg Intelligence is on ".
