Following the release of Thinking Machines' inaugural model, Inkling, researchers noted that the firm—having onboarded numerous former frontier lab researchers—heavily borrowed the architecture of DeepSeek V3 for its new model. This further underscores that high-quality data remains the critical bottleneck and core determinant of model performance in the current AI landscape.
