DeepSeek-Coder-V2: 16B Lite vs. 236B – A Deep Dive into Open-Source Code Intelligence
Below is a comprehensive article that delves into the two main variants of DeepSeek-Coder-V2—namely, the 16B “Lite” models versus the full-scale 236B models—exploring their architecture, performance, and practical trade‐offs. The rapid evolution of code language models has long been dominated by closed-source giants. DeepSeek-Coder-V2 breaks that mold by offering an open-source alternative that rivals—and in…
