teortaxesTex · x · 2026-09-10
DeepSeek V4.1 Flash is rolling out in the app, merging the previous "Fast," "Expert," and "Vision" modes into a single entry point — one model now handles everyday chat, image understanding, and complex reasoning natively. DeepSeek previously claimed V4.1 Flash beats V4 Pro across performance, cost, speed, and total time, and will take over all V4 Pro traffic until V4.1 Pro launches.
