Summary

  • DeepSeek is an AI chatbot that has been marketed as a competitor to ChatGPT, but has several limitations, according to the author’s personal experience.
  • The server reliability is poor, with the chatbot often taking long breaks to respond and even providing server error messages, making it inconvenient to use.
  • Conversations feel uninspired and robotic, struggle to maintain context, and are not as fluid or engaging as ChatGPT’s Conversations.
  • The file upload functionality is also limited to text extraction only, which means it is not possible to use images or audio in conversations.
  • Finally, the lack of voice feature on the smartphone app makes it much less useful than ChatGPT.
  • In comparison, ChatGPT is much more reliable, has better infrastructure, and provides more engaging, context-aware conversations, and provides image and audio features.
  • The author believes that DeepSeek is still worth checking out, but ChatGPT satisfies all needs and is preferable for now.
