In today’s new era, technology continues to improve at a greater rate, and one of the most exciting finds is artificial intelligence (AI). 

 

Among the many AIs present today, DeepSeek stands out as a powerful tool designed to improve decision-making, data analysis, and problem-solving across various industries.

 

Now you might ask, “How is DeepSeek different from OpenAI’s ChatGPT?” Unlike ChatGPT, a general-purpose conversational AI, DeepSeek uses specialized, industry-specific models to analyze complex data and deliver precise insights for sectors like healthcare, finance, and retail. It’s designed for professionals seeking data-driven solutions, not just conversation.
