DeepSeek Releases New R1 Model Without Announcement

DeepSeek, a leading open-source model platform, has unexpectedly released its latest R1 model, version 0528, this morning. The company remains silent on the details of this release, with no official announcement or accompanying documentation yet available. However, it is expected that a detailed model card will be issued soon. Early testers, including those using Live CodeBench for code testing, have already begun evaluating the new version’s performance. Initial results suggest comparable functionality to OpenAI’s o3 model in its current state, while further analysis of stylistic output indicates similarities with OpenAI’s o3 model.
