For two years, American artificial intelligence companies looked unstoppable. Then came DeepSeek.

Today on Post Reports, we talk to tech policy reporter Eva Dou about how a scrappy startup became so dominant, and what it means for the AI arms race.

Eva has a book out now about one of the world’s most controversial tech companies, set against the backdrop of the political, social and economic transformation of China. It’s called “House of Huawei: The Secret of China’s Most Powerful Company.

Today’s show was produced by Rennie Svirnovskiy. It was edited by Maggie Penman and mixed by Sam Bair. Thanks to James Graff.
