New Deepseek model V4.1-Flash cuts memory needs for AI agents
TL;DRDeepseek's new AI model uses 75% less memory while matching top competitors' performance.
Why it matters: Lower memory requirements make powerful AI agents cheaper and faster to deploy at scale.
Deepseek releases V4.1-Flash, a multimodal model with 552 billion parameters that cuts KV cache memory to a quarter of its predecessor. On the DeepSWE coding benchmark, it narrowly beats Opus 5 and GPT-5.6 Sol, even though only 16 billion parameters are active per token. The…
