Investing.com -- Shares of China’s three largest telecom providers experienced a surge early Monday, following their integration of the AI model from domestic startup DeepSeek.
China Mobile (NYSE:CHL), the country’s leading wireless carrier, saw an increase of up to 5.1%, while China Telecom (NYSE:CHA) and China Unicom (NYSE:CHU) gained 10% and 4.4% respectively. The 10% surge of China Telecom represents the maximum daily increase permitted in mainland China’s market.
The integration of DeepSeek’s model into their services is aimed at "promoting the inclusive application of the latest AI technology," according to a statement from China’s Ministry of Industry and Information Technology released on Saturday. The three telecom giants have been working on their own large language models over the past few years, in line with the global AI trend.
DeepSeek’s latest AI model, R1, has been praised for its problem-solving capabilities. The model is reported to perform on par with OpenAI’s reasoning model, but at a fraction of the cost per use.
