DeepSeek AI Challenges Giants with New Models
2 Dec
Summary
- DeepSeek released two new reasoning-capable AI models, V3.2 and V3.2-Speciale.
- The V3.2-Speciale model reportedly outperforms Gemini 3.0 Pro and GPT-5 High.
- DeepSeek commits to remaining open source, making its models accessible for free.

DeepSeek, an AI firm based in China, has unveiled two new reasoning-capable artificial intelligence models: V3.2 and V3.2-Speciale. The company announced that its V3.2-Speciale model has surpassed the performance of established models such as Gemini 3.0 Pro and GPT-5 High in benchmark tests conducted by DeepSeek. Currently, the V3.2 model is accessible through its app and web interface, while the more advanced V3.2-Speciale is available via API access.
DeepSeek V3.2 builds upon the experimental V3.2-Exp released previously. The company asserts that V3.2 matches the reasoning capabilities of Gemini 3.0 Pro and exceeds that of OpenAI's GPT-5 in reasoning benchmarks. Notably, DeepSeek has pledged to maintain an open-source approach, allowing any entity to utilize its models without charge. However, the significant parameter count of V3.2 suggests substantial hardware requirements for operation.
