What the tests say

Where DeepSeek Coder 6.7B stands out and where it falls behind, by the numbers

DeepSeek Coder 6.7B has published results on 4 tests compiled by Epoch AI. The yardstick here is its generation: its position among the models released between Feb 5, 2023 and Jan 31, 2024 that took the same test. Against the whole archive, which includes 2023 models, a recent release lands near the top of almost everything, and that says nothing.

Where it stands out

Tests where it sits in the top third of its own generation.

It is not in the top third of its generation on any test with 6 or more models compared.

Where it falls behind

Tests where it sits in the bottom half of its own generation.

Frequently asked questions

What people ask about DeepSeek Coder 6.7B

Where does DeepSeek Coder 6.7B rank among AI models?

In the ROO3 AI Benchmark, ordered by the Epoch AI ECI, DeepSeek Coder 6.7B ranks #262 out of 267 models, with an ECI of 89.77. The ECI is a composite index that combines several hard benchmarks into a single scale. The position changes when a new model comes out, and the page is refreshed six times a day.

Where do the numbers on this page come from?

From the same three sources as the ranking, all openly licensed: Epoch AI (ECI and individual tests, CC BY 4.0), Arena (human-preference ELO, CC BY 4.0) and LiveBench (overall average, CC BY-SA 4.0). ROO3 does not measure any model. When the page shows a figure published by the maker itself, it appears in the written analysis, labeled as the maker's, and never enters the ranking.
