智东西10月22日消息,刚刚,据彭博社报道,DeepSeek在最新一轮融资中已筹集约1000亿元(约合150亿美元),创下中国AI行业规模最大的融资纪录,宁德时代和腾讯位列本轮融资规模最大的投资者之列。

据知情人士透露,DeepSeek在与投资者接洽期间至少两次上调融资目标,最初目标为500亿元,后提高至800亿元,最终达到1000亿元。由于相关细节尚未公开,知情人士要求匿名。

彭博社称,DeepSeek已开始加大投入,推进AI数据中心基础设施建设,并开发更多面向中国及海外市场的开源模型。

这轮融资将为DeepSeek筹备IPO提供资金基础。DeepSeek也借此缩小与OpenAI、Anthropic等美国头部AI实验室之间的资金差距。9月9日,据路透社报道,DeepSeek已经聘请中信证券,为其在上交所科创板进行IPO做准备。

据彭博社报道,月之暗面正在推进2027年第一季度在香港进行IPO。DeepSeek上市可能成为中国资本市场的一项重要里程碑。

过去一段时间,DeepSeek持续推出高性能、低成本模型,吸引了国内外开发者关注,收获美国等海外市场客户。

10月17日,DeepSeek发布并开源DeepSeek-V4.1-Flash-1017,在软件工程能力DeepSWE v1.1测试中,得分超GPT-6 Astra、GPT-6.1 Sol、Claude Opus 5等模型,单项任务平均费用较上一版本下降约六成。

10月20日,DeepSeek又开源了其内部使用的、大规模云服务推理框架DeepInfer和生产级token编解码组件deepseek-recipe,并发布详细技术报告,介绍了DeepSeek V4.1 Flash推理系统的整体架构与关键实现。

DeepSeek持续推进模型、框架和工具开放,走出了一条区别于部分海外头部AI实验室闭源商业化路线的发展路径。

随着DeepSeek获得大额融资,中国头部AI公司的资金和算力投入正在进入新的阶段。DeepSeek能否依靠这轮融资持续扩大模型性能、基础设施和海外商业化优势,仍有待其后续产品和IPO进展验证。
