Author: Paul Ellis March 30, 2025 Duration: 21:23
DeepSeek AI is unquestionably the media darling of the global information technology sector this year. News from the company in January about why DeepSeek is cheaper, faster and better at reasoning than other platforms roiled the NASDAQ technology stock market index and raised multiple questions, including: Will leading companies in the sector continue to increase their already frenzied build out of energy center capacity? Dr. Elham Kheradmand, today’s guest on the Sustainable Finance Podcast is the CEO and Co-founder of Lucid Axon and a Postdoctoral Researcher at University of Montreal. She has over a decade of experience in AI and financial technology research, and was a North American AI Leader of the year in 2022. Dr. Kheradmand also has some insights for our followers into just how good DeepSeek is.
