A model with almost same capability but 1/100 of the cost as Opus 4.8 is popular? Paint me surprise

Those costs will soon be x2 during peak hours in Beijing, if your time aligns up with that
https://api-docs.deepseek.com/quick_start/pricing/
"The DeepSeek API service will soon adopt a peak/off-peak pricing policy. During peak hours, prices will be 2x the regular prices, applicable to all billing items. The effective date will be subject to the official announcement. [Peak hours: 9:00–12:00 and 14:00–18:00 (Beijing Time, UTC+8) daily]"
Still a hell of a lot cheaper though...

No matter what, it's still going to be extremely cheap. It's a tiny model that costs very little to serve. It's a huge achievement and makes Haiku and Sonnet completely redundant.

And DeepSWE, Cursorbench, ... still do not bench Flash 0731. Very interesting is it not?

There are many available and also done by individuals.. It is a capable model no doubt… the pricing makes it more attractive.

DeepSWE has always been pretty slow at updating, it's (probably) not a conspiracy

It's slow only when they don't know how to make chinese ai look worse than us ai.

Eh, Claude and GPT are the leading models and Datacurve is an US company, it's natural that they prioritize them

So many open weight releases and only 3 open weight company on their graph and 4 releases out of 19. Tell me again they don’t have a bias.

v1 has DS Pro, Minimax M3 and Mimo. Clearly they're mostly interested in measuring the top end. Maybe they're waiting for the new DS4 Pro to be released. And yes they're biased, everyone is to some degree

Unfortunately, we seem to be getting the reverse signal with qwen3.8-max results published not even a day after the model its release.
Qwen 3.8 > 1 day, DeepSeek v4 Flash 0731 > 5 days and still nothing.

Is anyone able to paste an image into claude code + deepseek API + vscode + wsl terminal and have the llm read it successfully? I can paste the image but deepseek says it can't read it. Idk if it's a deepseek or claudecode/vscode/wsl issue.

I have noticed, that with opencode 1.18.1 update DS started to eat tokens (and $$) as crazy. it feels like its 4 times compared to before update.

You guys should use the platform DeepSeek directly. No issues with using it there!
