What happened

DeepSeek has released a new image‑to‑text model called DeepSeek‑V4.1‑Flash‑1017 that contains 763 billion parameters. The model can be downloaded, explored, and run directly from Hugging Face. It is designed for image‑text‑to‑text tasks, allowing users to input an image and receive a textual description or continuation. The release includes the model files and a ready‑to‑use repository on Hugging Face.
