DeepSeek is truly making a difference on many levels, but the one most refreshing is how they just deliver once again with no fanfare or drama. Not even a website. Just hand us over the goods for free the DeepSeek way.

Thats a feature, not a bug :)

Not clear if it can run iOS apps at all?

This would presume we knew what consciousness and pain is. We don't. We we are clueless. There is not even a starting point of a science here.

In this light your viewpoint is dogmatic. LLMs may help to offer a new perspective on consciousness and we should at least be open to that until some better theories arise.

They mixed up DeepSeek 4.1 Flash with something else on this page, possibly DeepSeek 4.1 Flash means Gemini 3.8 Flash.

The evolutionary way: Something that is very good at copying itself, will copy itself and gobble up resources, which are finite. Humans took the natural resources from animals and infinite scrolling took the mind-resources from kids. Now animals and our children are fewer and have difficulties to reproduce.

The bigger story is the compute efficiency - its been running at 300t/s the last days.

DeepSWE scores 75.4 - that's the best score so far. And it's crazy cheap! Google held the top a few hours today with Gemini 3.8 Flash, but now second to Spark 1.3. All this competition will drive prices down!

A fifth of the cost of Opus 5! Google is certainly pushing the completion with this.

0 days later: Qwen 3.8 Flash Next: Let's cut GLM 5.3 Flash parmeters in half and active parameters to a third!

Chinese models had 94% reduction in parameters (from 2.8T/104B to 180B/6B) in 6 weeks, while staying close to the same quality.

The point is open AI. "Open" as in open weights, open research, open future.

This is going so fast! What a time to be on hackernews:

July 16th: The "Kimi K3 moment" - China has caught up to Opus!

4 weeks later: GLM 5.3 - Same performance, but cut the amount of parameters and cost to a third!

12 days later: GLM 5.3 Flash - Almost GLM5.3 performance but cut the parameters in half, cut prices to a fifth and serving on Chinese chips!

I can't shake this the existential feeling that this compact series of 27G bytes represent something profound and universal.

And more context:

Same score as the latest DeepSeek Flash 0731 which has 284B parameters! (13B active)

Its also the second best Qwen model, much better than Qwen 3.7 Max, but significantly below Qwen 3.8 Max.
