DeepSeek-V3 model upgrade Users can experience it by turning off "Deep Thinking"
DeepSeek launched a small version update of the DeepSeek-V3 model on the evening of March 24, increasing the parameters from 671 billion to 685 billion. This update is not the anticipated DeepSeek-V4 or R2; users can experience the new model by turning off the "Deep Thinking" option. The API interface and usage method of the DeepSeek V3 model remain unchanged and have been integrated by major companies such as Tencent, Baidu, Alibaba Cloud, and ByteDance. API top-ups have been reopened, with the calling price adjusted to 2 yuan per million input tokens and 8 yuan per million output tokens, still below the industry average
According to Zhitong Finance APP, on the evening of March 24, DeepSeek launched the DeepSeek-V3 model after a minor version update. The new model version number is DeepSeek-V3-0324, with model parameters of 68.5 billion, a slight increase from the initial V3 version's 67.1 billion. DeepSeek has not released the system card for the new model.
This update is a minor version update for the DeepSeek V3 model, not the DeepSeek-V4 or R2 that the market has been eagerly anticipating. Users can directly experience it by turning off the "Deep Thinking" option.
DeepSeek's official announcement states that the DeepSeek V3 model has completed a minor version upgrade, and users are welcome to try it on the official website, App, or mini-program (by turning off Deep Thinking). The API interface and usage methods remain unchanged.
Currently, major companies including Tencent, Baidu, Alibaba Cloud, and ByteDance have integrated DeepSeek. Last month, DeepSeek reopened API recharge, with the announcement showing that the discount period for the deepseek-chat model has ended, and the calling price has changed to 2 yuan per million input tokens and 8 yuan per million output tokens, although this price is still significantly lower than the industry average
