Many of us have been waiting for DeepSeek R2. That wait will go on for a bit but DeepSeek-R1-0528 is already the undisputed open-weights leader. It has higher intelligence than xAI’s Grok 3 mini (high), NVIDIA’s Llama Nemotron Ultra, Meta’s Llama 4 Maverick, Alibaba’s Qwen 3 253 and equal to Google’s Gemini 2.5 Pro.
DeepSeek’s R1 leaps over xAI, Meta and Anthropic to be tied as the world’s #2 AI Lab and the undisputed open-weights leader
