DeepSeek releases open-source reasoning model, DeepSeek-R1, beats OpenAI’s o1
Chinese AI startup DeepSeek has released its new R1 model under open MIT license. It includes an open-source reasoning AI model called DeepSeek-R1 that is on par with OpenAI’s o1 on multiple benchmarks. DeepSeek gained a considerable attention a month ago after it launched the DeepSeek-V3 that outperformed AI models built by Big Tech rivals despite being trained at a fraction of their cost. This means while OpenAI’s o1 costs $15 per million input tokens and $60 per million output tokens, DeepSeek Reasoner cost $0.55 per million input tokens and $2.19 per million output tokens. The group of models includes DeepSeek-R1-Zero and the DeepSeek-R1 besides six more compact DeepSeek-R1-Distill models ranging from 1.5 billion and 70 billion parameters.
