In 2020, Chinese authorities effectively prevented Alibaba from executing what would have been the biggest public offering in history.Liang, who founded DeepSeek in 2023 as a subsidiary of his quantitative hedge fund, High-Flyer, rose to prominence last month after DeepSeeks openly available AI models showed strong performance against leading models from OpenAI and other American AI companies. U.S. officials have raised concerns over the explosive popularity of DeepSeeks models and services, which they perceive as a threat to the U.S. pole position in the AI race.Topics
