The Impact of DeepSeek on AI and Nvidia

DeepSeek, a Chinese AI technology company, has significantly disrupted the AI landscape by demonstrating that less hardware can achieve comparable results. Unlike competitors such as ChatGPT, which required 16,000 Nvidia chips for training, DeepSeek has proven capable with only 2,000 chips. This revelation has raised concerns about Nvidia's previously unshakeable dominance in the AI market, leading to a notable decline in its stock value. The market reaction showcases how investor sentiment can cause substantial price fluctuations, which in this case resulted in Nvidia losing $600 million in one day.
