DeepSeek raised input prices on four models today, with increases from 12% to 180%. The largest jump hit DeepSeek V4 Flash 0731, rising 180% to $0.14 per million tokens. GLM 4.6 from Z.AI cut its input price 22% to $0.43, creating the day's clearest divergence.
The open-source index gained 57,684 GitHub stars so far today and added 88 new projects. The weekly tally now stands at 2,219 new projects and 100 new Hugging Face spaces. Archify led star growth with +3,433.
Releases of the day
Open Interpreter shipped rust-v0.0.42, a minor release improving provider and transport discoverability. It also keeps the command-line experience consistently branded and adds a reusable component. The update refines developer workflow without changing the core interface. Pydantic AI released v2.41.0, deprecating fallback_model in favour of fallback_subagent_model on ImageGeneration and XSearch. The change simplifies agent fallback logic for users of those tools. Both releases are incremental, focusing on discoverability and API clarity.
DeepSeek raised input prices on four models: Flash 0423 up 12% to $0.09, Pro 0423 up 52% to $0.96, Flash 0731 up 180% to $0.14, and Pro 0813 up 14% to $0.66. GLM 4.6 from Z.AI cut input price 22% to $0.43. The net effect is a mixed pricing landscape, with DeepSeek moving sharply upward while a competitor lowers.

Research pick
A paper titled "Unlocking Lossless Speedups in LLMs via Discrete Diffusion" introduces diffusion-augmented LLMs. The authors argue that autoregressive models are slow because they generate tokens one by one. Their approach uses discrete diffusion to speed up generation without losing quality. The work received 19 upvotes on Hugging Face.
Today's facts show a market where infrastructure costs are shifting unevenly โ DeepSeek's steep hikes contrast with GLM's cut. At the same time, project creation remains high, suggesting continued experimentation despite price pressure.
