DeepSeek's new open-source AI model can outperform o1 for a fraction of the cost

SMRTR summary

DeepSeek has released R1, a new open-source AI reasoning model that rivals OpenAI's o1 in several benchmarks. R1 offers significant cost savings, with API access starting at just $0.14 per million tokens compared to OpenAI's $7.50. This development, along with recent progress by UC Berkeley researchers, shows that competitive AI can be more affordable and accessible. However, R1 may have some limitations due to Chinese government censorship and potential issues with clearly explaining its reasoning process.
