| Summary | DeepSeek V4.1 Flash 1017 is the October 17, 2026 snapshot of DeepSeek’s cost-efficient Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) model, built on its innovative Causal Encoder-Decoder (CED) architecture. Featuring 552B total parameters with 8B activated for input and 16B for output, it combines efficient inference with native multimodal understanding through jointly trained text and visual representations. Optimized for coding, terminal and computer-use agents, and long-horizon workflows, the model introduces compressed KV caching that reduces cache memory usage to approximately one-quarter of the previous Flash generation. DeepSeek reports that it surpasses V4 Pro in performance, inference speed, and task completion time, making it well suited for cost-efficient autonomous agents, complex software engineering, and long-context analysis. | Google Gemini 3.5 Transcribe speech-to-text. Billed per input and output token. | Grok 4.6 is SpaceXAI's smartest frontier model, delivering top-tier performance across coding, knowledge work, and STEM reasoning. It is designed for demanding technical and professional workloads that require strong problem solving, accurate instruction following, and reliable execution. Optimized for software engineering, scientific analysis, and complex knowledge tasks, Grok 4.6 is well suited for advanced coding, research, and agentic workflows where high capability and reasoning quality are critical. |
