Trending Topics

Among the technology news that was distributed in January, the PR Newswire team was able to spot several larger stories that highlight the trends shaping the industry.

• An Alternative AI Model: DeepSeek: As AI continues to integrate closely with mainstream technology, the focus has primarily been on OpenAI. Its innovations have made AI a household word and until recently, it had not faced much competition. However, this month’s sudden rise of a possible competitor, DeepSeek, sent the AI community into a frenzy. The Chinese AI startup has been in the business since 2023, but it flew into the spotlight in January when its app became the most downloaded on Apple’s App Store, after it launched its R1 model. Companies have already started adopting R1, such as a Chinese automotive marketplace platform and a financial and taxation services firm. It’s also been made available on the Clarifai full-stack platform and been adopted by Microcloud for its holographic applications. As the year progresses, will DeepSeek maintain its newfound popularity and expand to become a global AI powerhouse? The PR Newswire team will be keeping tabs on related press releases in the coming months.

• CES 2025: CES, one of the biggest technology events in the world, kickstarted the year when it opened its doors in Las Vegas on Jan 7. Synonymous with the word innovation, the 3-day event brought together consumer technology companies of all kinds to put their most fascinating and futuristic innovations on display. AI integration was a major theme with firms going all in to integrate the technology into every sphere of life, from developments in automotive technology to robotics and optical fiber technology. Robotics saw a significant amount of innovation, including a chess playing robot, a robot companion and a walking assistance wearable robot. Multinational firms made their presence felt with keynotes from NVIDIA and X Corp, plus a look at Toyota’s Woven City. By the end, CES welcomed more than 141,000 attendees from around the globe and more than 4,500 exhibitors.

Looking Ahead: February is expected to bring further developments in the AI industry. How will OpenAI and other AI models respond to DeepSeek? The Gartner CIO Leadership Forum also has several scheduled events in February and will likely produce interesting updates in the technology space.
