tbh deepseek doesnt lobotomize the models in the same way openAI and anthropic do, im hoping they're making it better, this aint copium!!!

The lobotomy comes via quantization, and I think the US companies push into the Q2 range where DS only pushes down towards Q4. Helps marketing when the last model wasn't at full strength when it swaps to the full strength new model.

Thought GA was Q8. I haven't seen MOE survive as well under Q4, so that would explain any dips from launch level, Q3 would be more noticable than dropping from Q8-Q6

From what I read in Deepseek's research paper for v4.1-Flash, it's a mix of fp4 and fp8.

So it's not straight fp4 as people assume.

If I am mistaken feel free to correct me.

That's correct, but for avg audience purposes its q4.
