DeepSeek Coder expanded its open-source model family with a new 67 billion parameter version, aiming to compete with proprietary offerings like OpenAI's GPT-4. The release, optimized for coding tasks, arrives as Meta Platforms continues to push its Llama models, signaling an intensifying race among major tech players to dominate the generative AI infrastructure space. Stanford researchers also released a study detailing biases in large language models, noting that current evaluation metrics may not fully capture real-world performance disparities across different demographic groups.
