‍

The AI Daily: Chinese AI startup DeepSeek just released V3-0324, a upgrade version of its main AI model. It brings big improvements in reasoning, web development, and now uses the open MIT License.

Key notes:

  • V3-0324 scored higher on tests: MMLU-Pro went up 5.3 points, GPQA jumped 9.3 points, and AIME math improved by 19.8 points.
  • Web and game building got better—prettier designs and code that works more smoothly.
  • Chinese writing and translation improved, especially for longer text.
  • Function calling (used to trigger tools or code) is more accurate and reliable now.
  • Like the earlier DeepSeek-R1, this model uses the MIT License—meaning anyone can use it for free in research or business.

Why it matters: This update may look small, but it brings big changes. DeepSeek is moving fast. With a stronger model and a more open license, they’re making it easier for more people to build with AI. If the rumored R2 version is coming soon, this could signal DeepSeek’s push to become a major player in the AI race.

‍

The AI Daily: Google has unveiled Gemini 2.5, its new family of AI models with native reasoning capabilities, starting with Gemini 2.5 Pro Experimental—a model that immediately claims the top position on the LMArena leaderboard by a significant margin.

Key notes:

  • Gemini 2.5 Pro is best-in-class on reasoning tests, especially in math and science like GPQA and AIME 2025
  • Without extra tools, it scored 18.8% on Humanity’s Last Exam—a tough test made by experts to measure deep knowledge
  • It’s strong at coding too, hitting 63.8% on SWE-Bench Verified, especially for web apps and code editing
  • The model starts with a 1 million token context window (great for big files), and Google plans to raise it to 2 million soon
  • Available now in Google AI Studio and Gemini Advanced, with pricing and Vertex AI options coming soon

Why it matters: Google is setting a new bar by making smart reasoning part of every model—not just a premium feature. Gemini 2.5 Pro is a big step forward in AI thinking. But with GPT-5 and other new models on the way, the AI race is only getting more intense.

AI BREAKTHROUGHS
BMW & ALIBABA

The AI Daily: BMW and Alibaba are teaming up to bring smarter AI tech into BMW’s future cars. By 2026, BMW cars in China will feature Alibaba’s Qwen language model to create more advanced, voice-powered in-car experiences.

Key notes:

  • The two companies are building a new BMW Intelligent Personal Assistant (IPA), using a special AI engine created with Alibaba’s Banma division.
  • Two new AI helpers will be added to BMW’s Neue Klasse models: Car Genius for car system help, and Travel Companion for routes, food, and local tips.
  • The system can handle complex voice requests—like asking for traffic info, parking, restaurant ideas, and more—all at once.
  • This builds on their 9-year partnership in cloud, smart factories, and voice tech.
  • The new Qwen-powered assistant understands natural speech, so drivers don’t need to use exact commands.

Why it matters: As carmakers race to add AI features, BMW’s deal with Alibaba helps it stand out in China—a key market. While Tesla uses its own AI, BMW is teaming up with local tech experts, which could give it an edge by offering more personalized, region-specific features.
