Chinese AI startup DeepSeek has released preview versions of its new DeepSeek-V4-Pro and DeepSeek-V4-Flash models, but the market response has been lukewarm. This contrasts sharply with the significant attention received by their previous low-cost AI models like DeepSeek-V3 and DeepSeek-R1, which challenged the necessity of massive compute resources for AI training. Analysts suggest the market has become accustomed to efficient model development, and while the V4 models show improvements, they are not significantly outperforming top open-source competitors, especially with rivals like Kimi and Qwen rapidly advancing.
