This week should be a great week for open source There is the potential for DeepSeek, Meta, and Qwen to release new models, including r2 and Llama 4 Behemoth What open source model are you most looking forward to?
Is DeepSeek R2 going to outperform OpenAI o3?
To be honest, I find it hard to imagine that DeepSeek r2 is “better” than o3 (whatever that means; benchmarks? Tool-usage? human internation?). Nonetheless, a significantly better r2 could again put a lot of pressure on the global AI companies. A release next week would be https://t.co/7jtfbjTn5w
The AI community is anticipating the upcoming release of DeepSeek R2, an open-source large language model (LLM) expected to advance the capabilities of open-source AI. Following disappointment with Meta's Llama 4, DeepSeek R2 is seen as a potential catalyst to push open-source LLM development forward. Discussions center on whether DeepSeek R2 will surpass or at least match the performance of leading models such as OpenAI's o3 and Gemini 2.5 Pro. The model's release is anticipated to occur soon, possibly next week, and is part of a broader wave of new open-source AI models expected from DeepSeek, Meta, and Qwen, including Llama 4 Behemoth. The community is closely watching to see if DeepSeek R2 can introduce new features and innovations that could challenge global AI companies.
