DeepSeek-v4.1 Flash: Pushing the Limits of KV Cache Compression

DeepSeek-V4.1 Flash is a 552B-parameter multimodal MoE model with 1M-token context achieving 4x KV cache compression for long-horizon agent workloads.

A detailed analysis of the DeepSeek-V4.1 Flash technical report describes a 552B-parameter multimodal mixture-of-experts model supporting contexts up to 1 million tokens. Its Causal Encoder-Decoder (CED) architecture activates 8B parameters during prefill and 16B during decode, and reportedly delivers about 420 tokens/s. Joint optimization of architecture (CSA2 cross-layer compression), FP4 KV cache precision, and deployment strategy cuts runtime KV cache to roughly 1/4 and persistent KV cache to about 1/8 of DeepSeek-V4-Flash at the same sequence length, targeting storage and bandwidth bottlenecks in long-horizon agent serving. The author notes all DeepSeek-V4 Pro models were taken offline following the release.

[AINews] NVIDIA buys HuggingFace for $13B, as OpenAI publishes their HF incident retro

Z.ai released open-weight GLM-5.3-Flash (320B/18B active, 1M context, MIT) while Nvidia confirmed buying Hugging Face for $13B.

Z.ai formally launched GLM-5.3-Flash, the model previously previewed as Ox Alpha: 320B total parameters with 18B active, a 1M-token context window, natively multimodal, MIT-licensed, and claimed on par with Claude Opus 4.8 on coding. Artificial Analysis scored it 57 on its Intelligence Index at $0.09 per task, roughly 7.5x cheaper than GLM-5.3, and it scored 84.3% on Terminal-Bench 2.1. Nvidia's $13B acquisition of Hugging Face (~80x its $150M ARR) was confirmed, nearly double its initial $7B January offer. The roundup also notes Qwen shipping an impressive Flash model on Chinese chips as part of a broader open-model narrative.

Cognition launches new SWE-2 model, Rivaling Fable 5.1 and GPT-Astra

Cognition released SWE-2, a coding model post-trained from Kimi K3 that scores 50.0% on FrontierCode 1.1 Main, near Fable 5.1 at 64% lower cost.

Cognition introduced SWE-2, its most advanced coding model, post-trained from the 2.8T-parameter Kimi K3 base model. It achieves 50.0% on FrontierCode 1.1 Main, 73.0% on DeepSWE 1.1, and 92.8% on Terminal-Bench 2.1, beating Grok 4.6 and SWE-1.7 while matching Fable 5.1 and GPT-5.6 Sol at a fraction of the price. The company says it scaled reinforcement learning to the multi-trillion-parameter regime for the first time, using Pareto-informed cost penalties that train all reasoning-effort levels in a single run, tripled RL environments, and NVFP4/FP8 quantization-aware training. SWE-2 is available today in Devin Desktop and CLI, with rollout on Devin Web and Fusion.

[AINews] DeepSeek v4.1-Flash: 763B-P8B-D16B novel causal Encoder–Decoder architecture with vision marks the Return of the Whale

DeepSeek released V4.1-Flash, an open-weight 763B-parameter model with a novel causal encoder-decoder architecture, 1M context, vision input, and MIT license.

DeepSeek launched V4.1-Flash, an open-weight MIT-licensed model using a novel causal encoder-decoder architecture with 763B total parameters and asymmetric active parameters: 8B for prefill and 16B for decode. It supports 1M-token context and text+image input, priced at $0.30 per 1M input and $1.20 per 1M output tokens with a 50% off-peak discount. Artificial Analysis scored it 40 on its Intelligence Index, above DeepSeek V4 Pro 0813, and Vals ranked it the #1 open-weight model ahead of Kimi K3. Baseten shipped day-0 support and Ollama began rolling it out to paid subscribers.

unsloth/Qwen3.8-Flash-Next-GGUF — new model trending #21 on Hugging Face

Qwen released Qwen3.8-Flash-Next, an experimental 125B-parameter open-weight MoE previewing the Qwen4 architecture, with Unsloth shipping optimized GGUF quants.

Qwen released Qwen3.8-Flash-Next, an experimental open-weight preview of the architecture planned to underpin Qwen4. The model has 125B parameters with 6B activated, 512 experts (10 routed plus 1 shared), Qwen Sparse Attention (QSA), Gated DeltaNet, Gated Residual, and n-gram embeddings, with 262,144-token native context extendable to 1,000,000 tokens. Unsloth provides Dynamic 3.0 GGUF quantizations, and multi-token prediction (MTP) delivers 1.3-1.7x faster inference via llama.cpp or Unsloth Desktop.
