DeepSeek V3 vs InternVL2.5 78B

Overview

DeepSeek V3: DeepSeek V3 is DeepSeek's December 2024 open-weights Mixture-of-Experts model, activating 37 billion of 671 billion total parameters per token across a 128,000-token context window. It ships under the MIT licence with published weights and a technical report, and DeepSeek reports its own evaluation table for the text chat model under an 8,000-token output limit.

InternVL2.5 78B: InternVL2.5 78B is OpenGVLab's multimodal model in the ViT-MLP-LLM configuration, pairing the InternViT-6B-448px-V2.5 vision encoder with Qwen2.5-72B-Instruct as its language model for roughly 78 billion parameters in total. It keeps InternVL 2.0's architecture and advances instead through training and test-time strategy and a larger, filtered data mixture. The project is released under the MIT licence, while the Qwen2.5-72B-Instruct component it embeds carries the Qwen licence.

Context window: DeepSeek V3 accepts up to 128,000 tokens, InternVL2.5 78B up to 32,768. Confirm the limit for your specific deployment channel before relying on it.
