DeepSeek: How China 's ' AI heroes' overcame US curbs to stun Silicon Valley .

The firm says its powerful model is far cheaper than the billions US firms have spent on AI .

Beijing seemed to fumble with its answer to ChatGPT, which is not available in China .

Washington was confident that it was ahead and wanted to keep it that way.

DeepSeek has delighted the Chinese internet ahead of Lunar New Year , the country's biggest holiday.

It's good news for a beleaguered economy and tech industry that is bracing for further tariffs and the possible sale of TikTok 's US business.

But experts wonder how much further the model can go - and how fast it will continue using advanced chips.
