Deepseek releases Deepseek‑V4.1‑Flash‑1017, open-sources weights and opens search APIs
Chinese company Deepseek released Deepseek‑V4.1‑Flash‑1017 and published the model weights on Hugging Face and ModelScope. The company says the model—trained with reinforcement learning using self-feedback—runs faster, produces shorter outputs, beats larger rivals in its internal coding and agent benchmarks, and is paired with new Search & Fetch APIs for developers; independent verification of the benchmark claims is not yet available.
