FRANKFURT, Jan 28 (Reuters) - SAP said on

Tuesday that the prospect of cheaper and more energy-efficient

artificial intelligence models, presaged by China's DeepSeek

model, bodes well for growing demand for SAP's AI services.

"Yesterday ... (DeepSeek) showed that AI infrastructure will

scale, it will become a commodity. Without this infrastructure

you cannot run the gen (general) AI models," CEO Christian Klein

told journalists in a call.

"More and more players are entering the market and there

will be not only one large language model. Yesterday was a good

day for SAP," he added.

Many technology stocks have fallen after the popularity of

Chinese discount AI model DeepSeek wobbled investors' faith in

the profitability of AI and related investments.
