The company, whose chatbot took over OpenAI’s ChatGPT as Apple’s top downloaded app on Monday, cited “large-scale malicious attacks” for outages and its inability to take on new users.

DeepSeek, which was developed by a start-up based in the eastern Chinese city of Hangzhou, has shown the ability to match the capacity of AI pace-setters such as Nvidia.

Its success on the US app store sent shares in AI-linked tech giants plummeting on Monday.

The low-cost Chinese generative AI venture is thought to have matched US companies in its abilities but at a fraction of the cost.

Analysts had long thought that the United States’ critical advantage over China when it comes to producing high-powered chips—and its ability to prevent the Asian power from accessing the technology—would give it the edge in the AI race.

Available as an app or on desktop, DeepSeek can do many of the things that its Western competitors can do—write song lyrics, help work on a personal development plan, or even write a recipe for dinner based on what’s in the fridge.

It is however subject to the censorship seen in other Chinese-made chatbots like Baidu’s Ernie Bot that are very limited on how they interact on political topics.
