Reflection AI has launched Beam, an open-source model designed to compete directly with China's leading models like DeepSeek and Kimi by leveraging high-compute reinforcement learning for superior efficiency. The company claims Beam delivers competitive performance on coding and agentic tasks at a fraction of the token cost and inference time compared to Western rivals. This strategic move aims to strengthen the U.S. open-source ecosystem, which has previously lagged behind Chinese counterparts in model quality and availability.
