An #AI research team from the University of California, Berkeley, led by Ph.D. candidate Jiayi Pan, claims to have reproduced DeepSeek R1-Zero’s core technologies for just $30, showing how advanced models could be implemented affordably.

> [..] their team reproduced #DeepSeek R1-Zero in the Countdown game, and the small language model, with its 3 billion parameters, developed self-verification and search abilities through reinforcement learning
