BEIJING, March 6 (Xinhua) -- China is witnessing a surge in AI adoption as industries from finance to healthcare rapidly integrate DeepSeek, an open-source AI platform, to drive smart upgrades.
The "AI+" trend, centered on cost-efficient and customizable solutions, is reshaping productivity and innovation nationwide.
Financial institutions are at the forefront of this wave. Banks and securities firms have leveraged DeepSeek's models to enhance smart customer service, risk alerts, and automated operations, achieving notable efficiency improvements.
Experts attribute the platform's appeal to its open-source nature, enabling tailored solutions for diverse business needs.
Capital markets reflect growing confidence in AI's potential. AI-related stocks have outperformed, with China Securities Co., Ltd. highlighting "AI+" as a key investment theme for 2025.
DeepSeek's R1 model, launched in January 2025, has reduced AI deployment costs dramatically through algorithmic innovations, accelerating cross-industry integration.
China's AI market is projected to exceed 700 billion yuan in 2025, with industry-specific models remaining a focal point.
Shanghai aims to lead this transformation, targeting 100 Exa-floating point operations per second (EFLOPS) of computing power and establishing three to five AI incubators by year-end under its AI development initiative.
Analysts forecast that DeepSeek's open-source technology will expand into agriculture, education and energy sectors, driving productivity and operational excellence through AI-enabled transformation.
