DeeperML

DeepSeek AI is accelerating the release of its R2 AI reasoning model, a sequel to its R1 model that was launched in January. The R1 model matched or exceeded the performance of models from major Western companies like OpenAI, Meta, and Google. The release of R1 precipitated a significant stock sell-off, and the R2 model is expected to have enhanced coding and reasoning capabilities in multiple languages.

DeepSeek is moving up the release date for R2, which was initially planned for early May. This accelerated release may further intensify concerns in the United States regarding global AI leadership and is expected to encourage many Chinese companies to integrate DeepSeek models into their products. Furthermore, DeepSeek has announced the release of DeepGEMM, a library designed for efficient FP8 General Matrix Multiplications (GEMMs), as part of #OpenSourceWeek. This new library will help improve the efficiency of training AI models.
