Chinese AI startup DeepSeek has invested 140.8 million yuan ($20.8 million) in robot maker Unitree and agreed to jointly develop AI models for humanoid robots, Reuters reported on Aug. 6. DeepSeek received 933,399 shares, or a 2.31 percent stake, from a strategic allotment ahead of Unitree’s Shanghai IPO, the report said.
