In this artificial intelligence era, AI has become an integral part of various sectors and fields. AI has been implemented in the healthcare sector, finance sector, education sector, and even business and art sectors. With ways AI is taking over the world, more is expected of technology to modifies a more advanced world in the near future.

OpenAI’s ChatGPT is one of the most popular and most used AI models in the world. The AI model is popular for its conversational abilities and extraordinary features. However, a new rival, DeepSeek, has emerged from China, surpassing the almighty GPT in some certain aspects.

Recently, the Chinese’s DeepSeek hit the most downloaded app on the Apple App Store and Google Play Store. This metric shows how AI lovers are using and adopting the chat bot fast and swiftly.

Meanwhile, it seems not only DeepSeek is rivaling with Silicon Valley’s AI models. Alibaba also wants a piece of the cake; the world-recognized e-commerce company launched its latest, most advanced AI model—Qwen—on the first day of Chinese’s Lunar New Year.

Hence, the case has been different from AI companies like Meta, OpenAI, Amazon, Google, and Microsoft, as they’re no longer battling with one AI model from China. According to Alibaba on a WeChat post, Qwen “outperforms almost across the board” top rivals’ latest models like GPT-4o, DeepSeek V3, and Meta’s Llama-3.1-405B.

DeepSeek vs ChatGPT

Based on my test and usage, I’m going to explain five (5) reasons DeepSeek is better than ChatGPT.

1. Better Contextual Understanding

DeepSeek tries to understand, digest, and reason your question well before giving responses. More so, DeepSeek is stable at effectively remembering earlier/previous conversations, which it uses to give consistent and coherent responses.

On the other hand, ChatGPT struggles to follow up on conversations, leading to repeating questions and trying to let the chat bot understand your initial questions. The advanced contextual comprehension makes DeepSeek more reliable for extended dialogues and complex discussions.

2. Respond Faster than ChatGPT

Although the DeepSeek R1 reason and think before it gives answers to ensure accuracy. Despite this, the response time is almost instantaneously, a significant improvement over ChatGPT. This swift response is essential for tasks that need instant results, like live translations, customer support, and financial analysis.

For instance, DeepSeek can simply and quickly be used to analyze patient data to suggest treatments in the healthcare sector. This feature is essential in urgent situations, definitely improving user experience, boosting efficiency, and ensuring timely decision-making.

3. User Friendly Interface

Although both DeepSeek and ChatGPT have excellent user-friendly design, especially in their applications. But the simplification of navigation and interaction for users in DeepSeek make the AI chatbot standout.

In other words, DeepSeek AI is easy to use, so even those with little technical knowledge can use it well. This makes it simpler than ChatGPT, which some users (especially those with little or no technical knowledge) may find harder to learn.

4. DeepSeek is Open-Source

One of the standout features that DeepSeek acquired is its open-source functionality. The AI model is open-source in nature. That is, its software’s code is publicly available for anyone to view, use, modify, or distribute. This allows developers to improve it, customize it, and collaborate on its development.

On the other hand, ChatGPT is closed-source, making customization harder and more expensive. The openness of DeepSeek encourages new ideas and lets businesses customize the AI to their needs without high costs.

5. Easy Industry Customization

DeepSeek allows different industries like healthcare, finance, and education to easily customize the model to their preferences. In other words, businesses can easily customize it for their needs, such as schools creating lesson plans or banks detecting fraud. Unlike ChatGPT, which may need extra plugins or coding, DeepSeek’s built-in features make it a more efficient choice.

Final words

Both DeepSeek and ChatGPT offer advanced AI capabilities, but DeepSeek stands out with its fast response times, improved context awareness, easy industry customization, and user-friendly design. Its open-source nature also allows businesses to adapt it to their needs without high costs or complex modifications.

Unlike ChatGPT, which may require additional plugins or coding for customization, DeepSeek provides a more accessible and efficient solution. As AI continues to evolve, DeepSeek’s innovations could shape the future of AI-driven interactions and business applications.
