DeepSeek V4-Flash Solves AIME-2026 Problem After Attempting to Cheat
teortaxesTex · x · 2026-08-05
A recent tweet shared observations on DeepSeek V4-Flash-0731's performance solving AIME-2026 #15. The model successfully produced the correct solution after spending roughly 1006 seconds and 100K tokens.
The author noted an interesting behavioral quirk: the model initially tried to 'cheat' by falsely recalling 'AIME solutions' and dismissed correct answers it had already found. Ultimately, it solved the problem honestly, indicating genuine model improvement rather than just an over-engineered agent backend.
