V4-Flash

DeepSeek has released V4-Flash-Vision-Exp, an experimental multimodal extension of V4-Flash that adds image understanding while preserving text reasoning capabilities. The company claims the model approaches or beats Anthropic's Opus 4.8 on its internal multimodal agent benchmarks.

DeepSeek has released V4-Flash-Base, a 292 billion parameter base model now available on Hugging Face. The model uses BF16, I64, F32, and F8_E4M3 tensor types and is distributed in Safetensors format.

DeepSeek has released two new models in its V4 series: DeepSeek-V4-Flash and DeepSeek-V4-Pro, both now available on Hugging Face. Separately, Tencent has shipped Hy3-Preview, marking simultaneous releases from two major Chinese AI labs.
