The AMW Read
This updates the DeepSeek case study (§4) by demonstrating a breakthrough in reasoning-model economics via open-weight release and reinforcement learning, validating the CN/OSS challenger frame (cross.§B) against proprietary frontier labs.
DeepSeek released Math-V2, the first open-source AI model to achieve a gold medal score at the International Mathematical Olympiad. The model solved 5 of 6 IMO 2025 problems and scored 118/120 on the Putnam 2024 exam, surpassing the top human score of 90. Through a self-verifying reinforcement learning loop, the system autonomously checks proof rigor without needing pre-existing solutions. This release democratizes elite reasoning previously restricted to proprietary systems, accelerating the shift toward decentralized high-level AI development. 🧠📈
