open weights — A model whose trained parameters are published for anyone to download and run — unlike API-only models you can access but never possess.
Why it matters
DeepSeek's new sparse encoder-decoder split (763B total, 8B active, 16B decoder) with vision signals where efficient, cheaper-to-serve open weightsA model whose trained parameters are published for anyone to download and run — unlike API-only models you can access but never possess.Full definition → model design is heading, useful for anyone evaluating models for cost-sensitive deployment.
