A new super-powered,how to tantric sex video open-source AI model called DeepSeek R1 is rattling the industry this week, after it was unexpectedly dropped into the laps of artificial intelligence experts — and the world — with seemingly valid challenges to OpenAI's expensive AI model.
Released by Chinese AI startup DeepSeek, the DeepSeek R1 advanced reasoning model purports to outperform the most popular large language models (LLMs), including OpenAI's o1. According to the company, DeepSeek R1 bested these black box offerings in several important benchmarks, and has a particular talent at mathematical, coding, and reasoning tasks, Mashable's Stan Schroeder reports. Schroeder's own tests have shown that it holds its own against rival ChatGPT in complex coding tasks.

"DeepSeek thus shows that extremely clever AI with reasoning ability doesn't have to be extremely expensive to train — or to use."
