DeepSeek's engineers are a marvel, excelling in extracting every ounce of efficiency from the architectural constraints that characterize contemporary LLMs, as they appear to have done with the just-released V4.1 Flash, which is phenomenally competitive with the likes of OpenAI's GPT-5.6 Sol and Anthropic's Claude Opus 5 on coding and cybersecurity, while entailing just a fraction of their costs! The novel architecture of DeepSeek's V4.1 Flash model DeepSeek's V4.1 Flash model sports a fairly novel architecture. Given the inherent complexity, we'll try to explain the model's main architectural elements using easy-to-understand analogies. The V4.1 Flash is a multimodal Mixture of […]
