WeChat, China's leading social media platform, is conducting small-scale testing to integrate DeepSeek's R1 large model, joining a group of Chinese tech giants in embracing DeepSeek for enhanced AI capabilities, Tencent confirmed to China Daily on Sunday.
Users included in the test can see the "AI Search" label at the top of the search bar and access the full version of DeepSeek's R1 model for free, the company said.
Multiple Tencent products, including Tencent Cloud's AI code assistant, are exploring integration with DeepSeek to offer users a richer experience and enhanced services, it added.
