Alibaba Researchers Unveil Marco-o1 AI Model As Another Reasoning-Focused Competitor to OpenAI’s o1

Alibaba recently introduced a reasoning-focused artificial intelligence (AI) model dubbed Marco-o1. The model is similar to the QwQ-32B large language model, which is also optimised for tasks requiring advanced reasoning capabilities, however, one important distinction is that the Marco-o1 is a smaller model and is distilled from the Qwen2-7B-Instruct model.
