DeepSeek quietly updates R1 AI model amid anticipation for next-gen tech
Chinese
artificial intelligence (AI) start-up
DeepSeek quietly released a new version of its R1 reasoning model on Wednesday, marking its first revision since its high-profile debut in January.
The Hangzhou-based company said it had 'completed a minor update to the R1 model', which is now available on the website for its namesake chatbot, as well as its mobile apps, according to a notice posted in a company-run WeChat group chat.
DeepSeek did not disclose details of the changes in the update, dubbed R1-0528, which is now live on the open-source AI platform Hugging Face.
DeepSeek did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
The company last updated its foundational large language model V3 in March, touting improvements in coding and writing in the V3-0324 release on Hugging Face.
