We share some initial findings here.
DeepSeek vs. ChatGPT: The AI Rivalry That’s Redefining the Landscape
Both DeepSeek and ChatGPT are powerful large language models (LLMs), but their core technologies and strategic focuses differ significantly. Here’s how:
1. The Engine That Powers Them: Architecture & Efficiency
DeepSeek: Uses a Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) framework, dynamically activating different AI "experts" for specific queries, optimizing processing speed while reducing computational load.
ChatGPT: Relies on a monolithic transformer model, which, while powerful, demands higher computing resources, making it more costly to operate.
2. Performance Face-Off: DeepSeek vs. ChatGPT in Key Domains
DeepSeek often outperforms ChatGPT in areas of coding and mathematical computations. Refer to the charts below.
(i) Bar graph below shows comparison of various AI models' MMLU scores for reasoning and knowledge. Showcasing DeepSeek R7 at the top with 92%, followed by other models like DeepSeek R1 and Claude 3, with scores decreasing to Llama 3.1 7B at 71%.
(ii) Bar chart titled "Scientific Reasoning & Knowledge (GPQA Diamond)" shows scores ranging from 26% to 77% for different AI models. Models compared include-DeepSeek R1,o1, o1-mini, Gemini 2.0, Mistral, Llama3.3, Qwen2.5 Max.
(iii) Bar chart below shows Artificial Analysis Quality Index. Bars in varied colors show scores ranging from 54 to 90 for different models including DeepSeek v3, o3-mini, qwen2.5 Max, Gemini 2.0, GPT-4o mini, o1-mini and others.
3. Open-Source vs. Proprietary: A Battle for Innovation
DeepSeek: As an open-source, Deep seek allows users, especially AI developers, to examine its systems and deploy it into their own projects.
ChatGPT: A proprietary model, limiting transparency and modification options for enterprises seeking custom AI solutions.
Open-source AI is fueling breakthrough innovations, with companies leveraging DeepSeek’s flexible architecture to build AI-powered applications without vendor lock-in.
