The launch of DeepSeek’s first-generation reasoning models, DeepSeek-R1 and DeepSeek-R1-Zero, marks a significant milestone in the field of AI reasoning, showcasing the potential of reinforcement learning (RL) in driving advanced capabilities in large language models (LLMs). These models are designed to tackle complex reasoning tasks, with DeepSeek-R1-Zero standing out due to its reliance solely on RL, without preliminary supervised fine-tuning
