It hasn’t been long since DeepSeek released its efficient yet low-cost models, causing a frenzy in the tech world. The AI startup has returned to the spotlight today, releasing a major upgrade to its V3 large language model in a quest to intensify competition with its Western counterparts.
The new model, called DeepSeek-V3-0324, has been made available through the AI development platform Hugging Face. The move marks the startup’s continued push to gain a foothold in the rapidly intensifying tech landscape.

The updated model includes added parameters and improvements in coding and mathematical problem-solving. The company’s website has used the terms “enhanced reasoning capabilities, optimised front-end web development and upgraded Chinese writing proficiency”, to define its updates.
According to the South China Morning Post, this new version and DeepSeek V3 are both foundation models trained on vast data sets. These can be applied in different use cases, such as that of a chatbot.
DeepSeek data has shown that the updated model demonstrates notable benchmark improvements on tests such as the American Invitational Mathematics Examination (AIME). The new version scored 59.4 compared with 39.6 for its predecessor on the test, while it achieved a 49.2 on LiveCodeBench, an increase of 10 points.
According to Häme University of Applied Sciences lecturer Kuittinen Petri, “Anthropic and OpenAI are in trouble.” He noted this when he tested out the new version and asked it to “create a great-looking responsive front page for AI company.” In response, the new version produced a mobile-friendly, accurately functioning website after coding 958 lines.
Petri further noted that “DeepSeek is doing all this with just [roughly] 2 per cent [of the] money resources of OpenAI”.
Another tester, Jasper Zhang, a Math Olympiad gold medalist from the University of California, Berkeley, checked the model with an AIME 2025 problem. According to him, “it solved it smoothly”.
“More confident open-source AI models will win in the end.”
