DeepSeek: The AI Tool Everyone’s Talking About 📣
It's only been a week since DeepSeek is launched and it is shaking things up in the AI world, and here’s why it stands out from tools like ChatGPT:
✔️ Costs Way Less:
DeepSeek built its model for just $6 million, while others like ChatGPT burn billions. Smart and efficient!
✔️Top App Store Hit:
It’s the #1 free app on Apple’s US App Store, proving how easy and useful it is for everyone.
✔️Powerful Yet Affordable:
DeepSeek’s models work just as well as the best out there but cost 20 to 50 times less to use. Big savings, same quality!
✔️Built Differently:
Using a clever “teamwork” approach (called Mixture of Experts), it breaks tasks into smaller, specialized parts. Result? Faster and smarter AI.
✔️Open to All:
DeepSeek’s tech is open source, meaning anyone can use or improve it. It’s not just competing: it’s inviting collaboration.
✔️China’s Big Move:
Developed in China, DeepSeek is showing the world that great AI can come from everywhere.
DeepSeek proves you don’t need billions to build world-class AI. It’s fast, affordable, and accessible; a real game-changer.
And many are calling it a ChatGPT killer. Do you agree?

AI in Action: Featuring a project from the Kifiya AI Mastery Training Program trainees.
Our KAIM trainees are leveraging AI and data engineering to automate tasks and enhance predictions. One of their projects they tackled was in sales forecasting, helping businesses move beyond guesswork with smarter, data-driven decisions.
Meet Amen Zelealem and his project!
Amen developed a sales prediction model for a pharmaceutical company, where store managers relied on intuition, often leading to planning errors. His Machine Learning solution analyzes past sales data to generate accurate forecasts, optimizing stock levels, reducing waste, and increasing efficiency.
He invites you to check out his work and test his model yourself! 👇

Day 1 of the Ethiopian Data Science Regional Hackathon 2025 – Off to a Strong Start!
We started the day by welcoming an incredible group of participants from diverse background fields: healthcare, construction, IT, and engineering, highlighting the immense opportunities in this field.
🛰 The Challenge: Enhancing Cubesat Image Processing
Cubesats make space observation more accessible, but they come with challenges: blurry, noisy, or missing data due to limited power and bandwidth. The task is to optimize image quality while maintaining processing speed. How do we ensure satellites send accurate, valuable data without delays? That’s what our participants are solving!
Thank you to Mr. Alemiye Mamo Yacob from the Ethiopian Space & Geospatial Institute and the East Africa Regional Office of Astronomy for Development for sharing insights on ML in space tech.
We also appreciate Hack4Dev for the collaboration! Exciting ideas are on the way. stay tuned!

Where Are They Now? Meet Fanuel Abebe: a journey after 10 Academy's Intensive Training Program.
Today, we’re highlighting Fanuel’s journey! Before 10 Academy, Fanuel felt like he wasn’t keeping up with the fast-changing tech world. After completing the training, he had an opportunity to land a remote role with a US-based security company; armed with problem-solving skills, resilience, and a mindset for innovation.
His biggest lesson from the training is "I don’t give up quickly anymore. I keep pushing until I find a solution."
For anyone aspiring to grow in tech (AI or not), Fanuel’s advice is simple: Take the step, challenge yourself, and discover what you're capable of!

AI Facts for your Friday!
➡ AI is not just about deep learning!
Before the deep learning boom, AI pioneers in the 1950s-1980s focused on symbolic AI, a logic-based approach that didn't require massive data. Some modern AI models are now returning to this concept to improve reasoning and reduce hallucinations.
➡ AI can design AI; better than humans!
Google’s AutoML created a neural network more efficient than human-designed models.
Think of it as AI optimizing itself! That’s a recursive intelligence loop, which could lead to AI breakthroughs at unimaginable speed!
➡ AI made history on TV in 2011… and fooled humans!
IBM Watson beat two Jeopardy! champions by not only understanding questions but strategizing better.
The fun twist is Watson had to be reprogrammed because it started swearing and joking inappropriately during tests.
➡ There’s an AI that predicts the future of… everything.
DeepMind’s Gato AI can play video games, control robots, chat, and analyze the world, all with a single model.
Researchers think models like Gato could one day predict real-world events before they happen.
Which fact surprised you?
