Summary: DeepSeek V4 Pro in 30 Seconds DeepSeek V4 Pro 0813 went generally available on August 13, 2026. No press release, no blog post, just one line in a changelog. 1.7 trillion parameters, mixture-of-experts architecture, 1M token context, 384K token output ceiling. The weights are on Hugging Face under the MIT license. You can download them, modify them and ship them in a commercial product. Official scores are bold: 87.9 on Terminal Bench 2.1, 62.7 on DeepSWE. Independent testing is more restrained: 53 on the Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index. Pricing is $0.435 in and $0.87 out per million tokens. From August 16 the off-peak rate is half of that. The catch: its smaller sibling V4 Flash scores 52 on the same index at one third of the price. You are paying triple for one point. Model launches have settled into a ritual: a teaser video, a wall of benchmark charts, an excited founder post. DeepSeek skipped all of it. DeepSeek V4 Pro 0813 went generally available on August 13, 2026 with no announcement at all. One line landed in the API changelog and the weights appeared on Hugging Face. ...

Summary: Muse Glimmer in 30 Seconds Muse Glimmer is a 30 billion parameter agentic model released by Meta Superintelligence Labs on August 10, 2026. The weights are open under Apache 2.0. No cloud needed. Four-bit quantization shrinks the language model to under 20 GB, so it runs on a single consumer GPU with 24 GB or 32 GB of memory. It reads text and images, and returns text. Default context window is 128K tokens, and the model supports more. It clears its size class on agentic tests: 75.5 on MCP Atlas (Gemma4-31B 54.2, Qwen3.6-27B 62.5). On math, 94.7 on AIME 2026. The bundled DFlash drafter speeds generation up 3.1x on an RTX 5090 and 1.8x on an M5 Max. It is distilled from Muse Spark, Meta’s cloud model, so the big model’s agentic behavior is transferred into a small one. On the same day Zuckerberg announced that the weights for Muse Spark 1.2, Meta’s flagship model, will be opened too. No date, just “soon.” An AI agent normally means an API key, an internet connection and a bill that ticks up with every request. Meta just tried the opposite. ...
