DeepSeek's next-generation model is expected to be launched around the Spring Festival. Based on the latest research papers and information trends, the V4 version's technological iteration mainly focuses on three aspects:

First is a comprehensive upgrade of programming capabilities. This is not just about basic code generation optimization, but also about paving the way for subsequent programming intelligent agent applications. Second, the model shows significant improvements in structured output and tool invocation—laying the foundation for building general intelligent agents. The last point, which is often overlooked but equally critical, is the enhancement of Token processing capabilities, meaning the model can maintain stability in understanding and execution over longer contexts.

The combination of these directions indicates that DeepSeek is evolving towards greater intelligence and autonomy. Especially for developers and application builders, these capability upgrades could open up many new possibilities.
