Today on AI Explained, the team unveiled their latest creation, Deep Research, a powerhouse fueled by the mighty 03 model. They pitted it against rivals like Deep Seek R1 and Google's Deep Research, even considering the name 03 Proar Mini before settling on Deep Research. Testing it on 20 challenging use cases, they found it to be a force to be reckoned with, albeit at a price tag of $200 a month and requiring a VPN in Europe. The 03 model, their crown jewel, powered this beast, showcasing its prowess on benchmarks like Humanity's Last Exam and the Guia Benchmark. While it managed a respectable 72-73% on these tests, it still fell short of human performance, raising questions about the true potential of AI in the real world.
In a quest for common sense, they subjected Deep Research to a spatial reasoning test, only to find it stumbling over basic questions and resorting to a barrage of inquiries instead of providing straightforward answers. Despite its shortcomings in practical scenarios, the AI exhibited a knack for unearthing obscure information, excelling at finding needles in haystacks, albeit occasionally presenting screws alongside. In a bold move, they compared Deep Research to Gemini's offering, finding the former to outshine the latter consistently, albeit with a tendency to hallucinate. While Deep Seek R1 failed to impress with lackluster results, Deep Research emerged as a promising contender in the AI arena, albeit with room for improvement.
Venturing into uncharted territory, they delved into a world of obscure benchmarks, challenging the AI to sift through a sea of data to find the hidden gems. Despite its prowess in certain tasks, the AI struggled with nuanced queries, highlighting the gap between human intuition and artificial intelligence. Through a series of meticulous tests and comparisons, the team showcased Deep Research's strengths and weaknesses, shedding light on its potential as a valuable assistant in the digital landscape. As they navigated the complexities of AI technology, they uncovered fascinating insights and unexpected outcomes, painting a vivid picture of the evolving capabilities of machine learning models like the 03-powered Deep Research.
