The domestically developed large model DeepSeek web version has launched “Quick Mode” and “Expert Mode,” which are designed for concise searches and complex queries, respectively. The Expert Mode performs better at handling mathematical problems, suggesting it may be using a newer model. More features are expected to be released in the future.

Abstract generation in progress

China-made large model DeepSeek’s web version went live with two interactive modes—“Quick Mode” and “Expert Mode”—last night, supporting concise search and long-range, complex problem handling.

According to tests by Sina Technology, the “Quick Mode” introduced in this upgrade is closer to the earlier version of DeepSeek with direct naming changes. By contrast, “Expert Mode” adds professional knowledge consultation capabilities in fields such as programming, law, and medicine.

In handling mathematical problems, Expert Mode performs better than Quick Mode. For example, when asked whether a 7-meter-long sugarcane can pass through a door that is 2 meters high and 1 meter wide, Quick Mode responds that it cannot pass, but Expert Mode gives a deterministic answer that it can pass, along with a vivid analogy that the sugarcane’s cross-section is small enough to be pierced through like a spear.

In the view of industry insiders, the newly launched Expert Mode likely uses a larger, stronger model, possibly a configuration of the official DeepSeek V4 release. However, since it currently does not support document uploads and lacks multimodal capabilities, beyond improvements to long-range and complex question-answering, more capabilities still await further release from DeepSeek.
