DeepSeek releases V4 with 384K context window

Chinese AI lab DeepSeek has released a preview of its flagship V4 model, featuring a dramatically expanded context window and a new architecture that handles large volumes of text far more efficiently than its predecessor. Like DeepSeek's earlier models, V4 is open source, keeping the pressure on closed Western competitors and again demonstrating that cutting-edge AI is no longer a US monopoly. The model is already available on Hugging Face with a maximum output of 384,000 tokens.
