DeepSeek has released DeepSeek-V3, a Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) language model featuring 671 billion total parameters with 37 billion activated per token. The model is trained on 14.8 trillion tokens and utilizes Multi-head Latent Attention and an auxiliary-loss-free load balancing strategy.

  • DeepSeek-V3 achieves performance comparable to leading closed-source models while requiring only 2.788M H800 GPU hours for training.
  • It incorporates a Multi-Token Prediction (MTP) objective and distills reasoning capabilities from the DeepSeek-R1 series.
  • The model supports inference via libraries like Transformers, vLLM, SGLang, and LMDeploy.

The release provides open-source access to a high-performance base model with strong math and code capabilities.
