DeepSeek R1 is an open-weight reasoning model trained primarily via reinforcement learning. It reproduced much of the performance of OpenAI’s o1 at a fraction of the inference price.
Model B — Amazon
Nova Pro is Amazon’s flagship multimodal foundation model, available exclusively through Amazon Bedrock. Strong on document understanding and AWS-integrated workloads.
