Nvidia, the stellar company, the tip of artificial intelligence, lost in capitalization value 592,658 million dollars or in other words, the action receded almost 17% on Monday.
The news of the company of China, caused a massive sale among the actions of chips manufacturers, which left the Nasdaq technological with a loss of 3.07%, to be located at 19,341,83 units, its worst fall since July 24 of the year Past, when he lost 3.63 percent.

The predominance of American companies in the artificial intelligence industry (AI) seems threatened after Depseek’s development was qualified as a model of robust, free and open source language that was developed in a short term and a cost less than a lower cost than The 6 million dollars, according to specialized media reports.
“The Chinese technological advance would eliminate the dependence of high performance processors, frustrating the United States efforts to restrict the sale of NVIDIA processors to China,” they wrote actinver analysts.

The Depseek model is not only seen as a serious threat to developments such as Chatgpt, from the American OpenAi firm, which is one of the main clients of Nvidia’s high performance chips, not only for its potential capacity, but also it was Made with Nvidia reduced capacity chips called H800S.
Deepseek was created only in 2023 of a Chinese coverage fund called High-Flyer Quant, which administers around 8,000 million dollars in assets.
This unit focuses on the development of large models of general artificial language and intelligence, (AGI), an AI branch that matches or exceeds the human intellect in a wide range of tasks.
The stir caused by the Deepseek company led to the most downloaded free application in the United States from the Apple App Store, thus unbaging to Chatgpt.
Deepseek said shortly that it would temporarily limit user records “due to large -scale malicious attacks” to their services, although existing users may log in normally. (With information from agencies)
