DeepSeek just dropped V4-Flash, a game-changing AI model that slashes costs—claiming to be over 100x cheaper to run than Anthropic’s Claude 3.5. At just 14 cents per million input tokens and 28 cents for output, it beats rivals like Kimi K3 (86 cents) and GPT-5.6 Sol ($1.86), especially when factoring in efficiency. While it scores 50/100 on intelligence (matching Gemini 3.6 Flash), it lags behind top performers like Claude Opus 5 and GPT-5.6 Sol. DeepSeek’s next-gen V4-Pro is coming soon, and Alibaba’s Qwen 3.8 Max is also heating up the race—proving affordability and power are now the ultimate AI battlegrounds.
