    China’s DeepSeek V3 AI Model Surpasses ChatGPT-4 and Llama 3.1, Shakes OpenAI’s Dominance

    A New Contender in AI: DeepSeek V3 Challenges the Reign of OpenAI's Giants

    Although OpenAI released its latest O3 models recently, which sparked discussions about Artificial Intelligence, yet another breakthrough has been reported: DeepSeek’s DeepSeek-V3 model, which has surpassed GPT-4 and Claude 3.5  in different benchmarks. This Chinese AI model was comparatively trained on a much smaller budget and with fewer resources. To say the least, waves are being made in the AI community by it for its innovation and cost-efficiency.

    What is DeepSeek- V3?

    DeepSeek-V3 is a Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) model with 671 billion parameters that is noted for its impressive training cost of just $5.5M. Basically, MoE models work like a team of specialists collaborating to answer questions.  The way DeepSeek- V3 AI model is outperforming the leading AI models, it is going to be a gamechanger in the AI landscape.

    Features of DeepSeek- V3:

    It is the biggest leap forward yet, with:

    • 60 tokens/second (3x faster than V2!)
    • Enhanced capabilities
    • API compatibility intact
    • Fully open-source models & papers
    DeepSeek-V3 features

    DeepSeek’s defining features are that it uses advanced techniques to make memory usage more efficient, especially for tasks which require a lot of computing power. DeepSeek-V3 reduces performance slowdowns with its “auxiliary-loss-free load balancing“. The model is not only cost effective but also uses less memory and works comparatively faster.

    DeepSeek- V3 can process up to 128,000 tokens at once which makes it ideal for complicated tasks like legal document review and academic research. Additionally, its multi-token prediction (MTP) predicts multiple words simultaneously, making it up to 1.8 times faster than traditional models.

    DeepSeek’s Model Summary:

    • Creative Architecture and Load Balancing

    DeepSeek-V3 utilizes an advanced load balancing strategy which helps in minimising performance issues typically caused by balancing  various workloads. It also incorporates Multi-Token Prediction (MTP), which accelerates the processing and improves performance by predicting several words at once.

    • Pre Training: With Ultimate Focus On Training Efficiency

    Its FP8 mixed precision training framework significantly reduces costs and training time. An interesting fact is that developers trained DeepSeek-V3 with just 2.664 million GPU hours on a 14.8 trillion token dataset. The additional training stages require minimal GPU time.

    • Post Training: Knowledge Distillation for Improved Reasoning

    In post-training, DeepSeek-V3 improves reasoning skills through knowledge distillation from the DeepSeek-R1 model. What this does is it improves the model’s reasoning abilities while still maintaining control over the output’s style as well as its length.

    Performance:

    Evaluation Results

    The evaluation shows the best results in bold. DeepSeek is achieving the best performance on most of the benchmarks.  As mentioned earlier, while it is outperforming models like OpenAI’s GPT-4o and Claude 3.5 Sonnet in various aspects, it is also excelling in coding and mathematics. It surpasses models like LiveCodeBench and Math-500 in coding and mathematics benchmarks.

    Isn’t this advancement and growth just amusing? Developments like these continue to push the boundaries of what Artificial Intelligence can achieve. DeepSeek-V3 is set to redefine the future of artificial intelligence. Explore DeepSeek-V3 by chatting directly on its official website, chat.deepseek.com.
