**Have you used DeepSeek?**
By Akash Pasricha
Half of The Information's readers have used DeepSeek, the artificial intelligence app developed in China, but only 10% of those users pay for it, according to our latest survey. OpenAI's ChatGPT remains the dominant AI tool among readers, but Anthropic's Claude and Google's Gemini have grown considerably more popular in the past 16 months.
Sentiment about the technology sector in the survey remained upbeat and largely unchanged from last month. Respondents were more pessimistic about some companies, including Tesla, Meta Platforms, and Coinbase, compared with January. In total, 857 people answered the survey from February 20 to Monday.
