Meta AI introduced smaller versions of llama-4 family models: llama-4-scout and llama-4-maverick, with a larger Behemoth model still in training. DeepCoder 14B from UC Berkeley is an open-source coding model rivaling openai's o3-mini and o1 models, trained with reinforcement learning on 24K coding problems. Nvidia released llama-3.1-nemotron-ultra-253b on Hugging Face, noted for beating llama-4-behemoth and maverick and competing with deepseek-r1.

Claude 3.7 Sonnet demonstrates exceptional coding and reasoning capabilities, outperforming models like DeepSeek R1, O3-mini, and GPT-4o on benchmarks such as SciCode and LiveCodeBench. It is available on platforms including Perplexity Pro, Anthropic, Amazon Bedrock, and Google Cloud, with pricing at $3/$15 per million tokens. Key features include a 64k token thinking mode, 200k context window, and the CLI-based coding assistant Claude Code. Meanwhile, DeepSeek released DeepEP, an open-source communication library optimized for MoE model training and inference with support for NVLink, RDMA, and FP8. These updates highlight advancements in coding AI and efficient model training infrastructure.
