DeepSeek V4 Flash
grok-4-1-fast-non-reasoning(This model currently points to the older 0423 version; if you need to request the latest version, you can choose the model deepseek-v4-flash-0731)DeepSeek-V4 features an ultra-long context of one million characters and achieves leading performance domestically and in the open-source domain in agent capabilities, world knowledge, and reasoning.
Grok 4.1 is a new conversational model with significant improvements in real-world usability, delivering exceptional performance in creative, emotional, and collaborative interactions. It is more perceptive to nuanced user intent, more engaging to converse with, and more coherent in personality, while fully preserving its core intelligence and reliability. Built on large-scale reinforcement learning infrastructure, the model is optimized for style, personality, helpfulness, and alignment, and leverages frontier agentic reasoning models as reward evaluators to autonomously assess and iterate on responses at scale, significantly enhancing overall interaction quality.
