May 28th update to the [original DeepSeek R1](/deepseek/deepseek-r1) Performance on par with [OpenAI o1](/openai/o1), but open-sourced and with fully open reasoning tokens. It's 671B parameters in size, with 37B active...

Unique: Trained via reinforcement learning to dynamically allocate reasoning effort based on problem complexity, using sparse activation (37B active of 671B total) to route computation efficiently. This contrasts with fixed-depth reasoning in standard LLMs and enables o1-level performance on diverse problem types without proportional computational overhead.

vs others: Matches o1's reasoning quality on complex problems while being open-source and exposing reasoning tokens, versus GPT-4 which lacks systematic reasoning depth and o1 which hides the reasoning process entirely.
