abstract
This study examines the transformative economic impact of DeepSeek R1, an advanced artificial intelligence (AI) system, across multiple industries. It highlights how DeepSeek R1 drives productivity, sparks innovation, and promotes economic growth, while also addressing significant challenges such as job displacement, high implementation costs, and ethical concerns surrounding AI use. The research uncovers how DeepSeek R1 enhances efficiency in manufacturing, and finance, creating new employment opportunities in areas like AI development and data management. Tech savvy businesses have also reported improved operational efficiency and cost savings through its adoption. However, the study acknowledges the pressing concerns of workforce displacement and ethical issues, including algorithmic bias and data privacy risks. The findings emphasize the need for forward-looking policy measures, such as workforce reskilling programs and robust ethical frameworks, to ensure responsible and inclusive AI adoption. It calls for further exploration of AI’s long-term social implications and strategies for its sustainable integration into business operations, ensuring that its benefits reach society equitably.
