Summary

  • Chinese startup DeepSeek has released an updated version of its open-source reasoning AI model, DeepSeek-R1-0528, which brings it closer to proprietary paid models such as OpenAI’s O3 and Google Gemini 2.5 Pro in terms of reasoning capabilities.
  • The model is now available under the MIT License, allowing developers to customise the model to their needs and supporting commercial use.
  • It delivers stronger performance on complex reasoning tasks in mathematics, science, business and programming, while also including new features to make it easier for developers to integrate the model’s capabilities.
  • There is also a smaller variant of the chain-of-thought reasoning model for those with more limited compute budgets.
