DeepSeek has launched DeepSeek-V4.1-Flash, a 552B-parameter mixture-of-experts model featuring a novel Causal Encoder–Decoder architecture with just 8B active input and 16B active output parameters. The release brings native vision, compresses KV cache storage by up to 8x, and slashes off-peak API pricing to $0.15 per million input tokens.
