Nous Research has released NousCoder-14B, a new open-source code generation model. The model, built on the DeepSeek-Coder architecture, is designed to compete with proprietary models like Claude Code and GitHub Copilot. It features 14 billion parameters and was trained on a large dataset of code from multiple programming languages. The release is positioned to capitalize on the current market interest in AI coding assistants. The model is available for free download and commercial use under an open license, aiming to provide a capable alternative to closed-source options.
