DeepSeek appeared all of a sudden in the West and is conquering everyone. The new AI model is expanding beyond mobile and making its way to Windows! Yeah, it is now being backed by Microsoft. Yesterday, Microsoft added the DeepSeek R1 model to its Azure AI Foundry, letting developers build and test cloud-based apps. Today, the company revealed plans to bring distilled versions of R1 to Copilot+ PCs. It’s an interesting twist, as Microsoft has been one of the biggest backers of OpenAI, and now the company is also opening the doors to Deepseek, a huge competitor for current AI models.
