DeepSeek's latest AI model, R1-0528, is making waves in the AI community due to its impressive performance in math and reasoning tasks. This new model, despite having a similar name to its predecessor, boasts a completely different architecture and performance profile, marking a significant leap forward. DeepSeek R1-0528 has demonstrated "unprecedented levels of demand" shooting to the top of the App Store past closed model rivals and overloading their API with unprecedented levels of demand to the point that they actually had to stop accepting payments.

The most notable improvement in DeepSeek R1-0528 is its mathematical reasoning capabilities. On the AIME 2025 test, the model's accuracy increased from 70% to 87.5%, surpassing Gemini 2.5 Pro and putting it in close competition with OpenAI's o3. This improvement is attributed to "enhanced thinking depth," with the model using significantly more tokens per question, engaging in more thorough chains of reasoning. This means the model can check its own work, recognize errors, and course-correct during problem-solving.

DeepSeek's success is challenging established closed models and driving competition in the AI landscape. DeepSeek-R1-0528 continues to utilize a Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) architecture, now scaled up to an enormous size. This sparse activation allows for powerful specialized expertise in different coding domains while maintaining efficiency. The context also continues to remain at 128k (with RoPE scaling or other improvements capable of extending it further.) The rise of DeepSeek is underscored by its performance benchmarks, which show it outperforming some of the industry’s leading models, including OpenAI’s ChatGPT. Furthermore, the release of a distilled variant, R1-0528-Qwen3-8B, ensures broad accessibility of this powerful technology.
