1. Introduction to DeepSeek
DeepSeek is an AI dialogue and creation assistant for everyone. It supports multiple languages and is free to use. You can use it for daily tasks, work, study, code, summaries, and charts.
1.1 Why DeepSeek Stands Out
Strong reasoning; good at code and math; free and multilingual; open and transparent.
1.2 Mobile App and Web
Mobile: Search for “DeepSeek” (blue whale icon) in your app store, then sign up with your phone number. Web: Visit https://chat.deepseek.com/ and log in with your number and verification code.
1.3 First-Time Tips
Be patient, ask in natural language, and set a small goal (e.g. write a short story or a study plan with DeepSeek).
2. Interface and Features
Sidebar: History, favorites, settings. Deep thinking: Richer reasoning and more complete answers. Web search: Fetch recent information and cite sources. Documents: Upload files and get Markdown, mind maps, Mermaid, CSV, HTML, etc.
3. Practical Use
Prompt formula: What you want + for whom/where + desired outcome + concerns. Ask “explain in simple terms” if the answer is too technical. Add role and context (e.g. “I’m a primary school teacher, how do I help pupils improve writing?”). Request output format (e.g. intro–body–conclusion, Markdown mind map, Mermaid flowchart).
4. Example Workflows
Mind map: Ask for a book summary “in Markdown for a mind map” and paste the output into Markmap. Report/PPT: Ask for a report on “AI in healthcare” with deep thinking and web search, then paste into an AI presentation tool.
5. Summary
Start with the basics, combine documents with deep thinking and search, and set small milestones. You’ll get more value from DeepSeek and DeepSeek 4 over time.
