The trading week began with DeepSeek toppling ChatGPT as the top-rated free application on Apple’s app store in the U.S. The news sent shockwaves across the U.S tech market. Developed in China, DeepSeek, many say (including Silicon Valley) is better and faster than ChatGPT. It’s an open-source model that was developed at a fraction of the cost of its competitors.
