AI researchers develop 'reasoning' model for under $50

Researchers created an AI reasoning model on par with OpenAI's o1 for less than $50
Researchers at Stanford and the University of Washington have developed a model that performs comparably to OpenAI o1 and DeepSeek R1 models in math and coding — for less than $50 of cloud compute credits.
How does DeepSeek R1 really fare against OpenAI’s best reasoning models?
While DeepSeek can point to common benchmark results and Chatbot Arena leaderboard to prove the competitiveness of its model, there's nothing like direct use cases to get a feel for just how useful a new model is.
OpenAI finds DeepSeek used its data to train R1 reasoning model
DeepSeek is a Chinese artificial intelligence provider that develops open-source LLMs. R1, the latest addition to the company’s model lineup, debuted last week. The release of the LLM caused a broad selloff in AI stocks that sent Nvidia Corp.’s shares plummeting 17% on Monday, along with many other technology stocks.
New AI Reasoning Model Rivaling OpenAI Trained on Less Than $50 in Compute
It's cheap to copy already built models from their outputs, but likely still expensive to train new models that push the boundaries.
Academic researchers find a way to train an AI reasoning model for less than $50
A small team of AI researchers from Stanford University and the University of Washington has found a way to train an AI reasoning model for a fraction of the price paid by big corporations that produce widely known products such as ChatGPT.
DeepSeek’s R1 and OpenAI’s Deep Research just redefined AI — RAG, distillation, and custom models will never be the same
Things are moving quickly in AI — and if you’re not keeping up, you’re falling behind. Two recent developments are reshaping the landscape for developers and enterprises ali ...
