Tencent announced that its Weixin messaging app, China's largest, is testing DeepSeek's AI model for search functionality in a beta program. This integration, confirmed by Tencent via Reuters, signifies a major step as tech companies race to leverage advanced AI technologies.
Weixin, primarily serving domestic users, is experimenting with DeepSeek while still utilizing Tencent's Hunyuan-Large language model for AI-powered search enhancements. Tencent is also exploring integrating DeepSeek into other products such as Tencent Cloud AI Code Assistant and AI app Yuanbao, according to insider sources.
With 1.38 billion combined users on Weixin and its global counterpart WeChat as of September, Tencent’s AI adoption aims to improve user experience and maintain competitive edge in China's rapidly evolving tech landscape.
DeepSeek gained global attention after launching a free AI assistant last month, noted for its cost-efficiency and lower data usage compared to competitors like ChatGPT. It quickly surpassed ChatGPT in Apple’s App Store downloads, fueling interest from major Chinese firms. Automaker Great Wall Motor and top telecom providers are already integrating DeepSeek into their services, highlighting its growing influence.
The integration of DeepSeek into Weixin underscores Tencent's commitment to enhancing its AI capabilities amid fierce competition in the tech sector. As AI adoption accelerates, Tencent's move positions it at the forefront of China's AI innovation landscape, catering to millions of users with cutting-edge technology while expanding its product ecosystem.
