At the AI Boundless Innovation Global Launch Conference held in Shanghai, iFlytek announced a significant upgrade to its deep reasoning model, Starfire X1. iFlytek's senior vice president, Yu Jidong, revealed that this upgrade will further enhance Starfire X1's performance in reasoning, text generation, and language understanding, making it comparable to industry-leading models like OpenAI's o1 and DeepSeek's R1. Initially launched in January 2025, Starfire X1 distinguishes itself with its training based on entirely domestic computing power.
