Model Brief
A Chinese model family known for reasoning, coding, and cost-efficient training and inference.
Read full profile and timeline+
DeepSeek is one of the most closely watched Chinese model families, associated with reasoning, coding, open models, and cost-efficient training and inference. Its releases often trigger debate around architecture, training cost, inference efficiency, open strategy, and the global competitive landscape.
DeepSeek can be understood through three themes: how reasoning models improve math, coding, and complex problem solving; how open models reshape developer and cloud ecosystems; and whether cost efficiency makes high-capability models accessible to more companies and individuals.
Timeline
DeepSeek-V2, V2.5, V3, and R1 made it a globally watched open-model line, with low-cost training, MoE architecture, reasoning performance, and permissive licensing driving broad debate.
Later V3.1, V3.2, and V4 Preview releases continued to strengthen hybrid thinking modes, coding tasks, and cost-efficient inference, making DeepSeek a visible signal of shifting global AI competition.

Zing: Social Mind for LLMs
As large language models move from isolated task solving toward long-term service in human environments, they require social intelligence: the ability to infer mental states, track social relations, reason over norms, and adapt behavior under context.
