DeepSeek's V4-Flash model sees 10-point score boost via retraining

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

DeepSeek's V4-Flash model has achieved a score of 50 on Artificial Analysis's Intelligence Index, marking a significant 10-point improvement. This advancement was realized through post-training refinement without any changes to the model's architecture. Notably, the retrained model is also approximately 60% more cost-effective per task compared to GPT-5.6 Luna. AI

IMPACT This advancement in model efficiency and performance through retraining could signal a new trend in optimizing existing LLMs rather than solely focusing on new architectures.
