DeepSeek-V4-Pro-DSpark isn't a new base model. It's the same 1.6T V4-Pro checkpoint plus a DSpark speculative-decoding head (~893GB). What config.json and the DeepSpec repo reveal, and why there's no speed benchmark yet.
After a US order pulled Claude Fable 5, which Chinese models drop into Claude Code? Kimi K2.7 Code, Qwen3.7 Max, DeepSeek V4 and GLM-5.1 — constraints, VRAM, benchmark caveats.
DeepSeek V4 Preview ships V4-Pro (1.6T/49B active) and V4-Flash (284B/13B active) as open weights under MIT, both with 1M context. CSA+HCA hybrid attention, mHC, and the Muon optimizer cut per-token FLOPs at 1M tokens to 27% of V3.2. Day-one API and chat.deepseek.com mode switch covered.
Two open-weight Chinese MoEs landed within 24 hours: Ant Ling-2.6-flash (104B/7.4B active, 7x token-efficiency claim) and Tencent Hy3-preview (295B/21B active, frontier-tier open weights). Specs, licenses, and how they line up against DeepSeek-V3 and GLM-4.5.
Xiaomi launched two MiMo-V2.5 models at once. MiMo-V2.5-Pro hits SWE-bench Pro 57.2, Claw-Eval 63.8, and τ3-Bench 72.9 — frontier-tier — while MiMo-V2.5 brings native omnimodality plus a 1M context. Both are API-only for now; open weights are promised but unscheduled.
Zhipu AI's GLM-5.1 is a 744B MoE (40B active, 200K context, MIT) targeting long-horizon agent tasks. Hits 58.4% SOTA on SWE-Bench Pro (edging out GPT-5.4 and Claude Opus 4.6) and sustains performance across 8-hour sessions with 6,000+ tool calls without degradation.
