No you can't. It still responds in Chinese after explicitly asking it to "Always reason and respond in English."

I've literally only done this once per computer I use the web interface on, and it's always stuck thereafter. I can't speak to the mobile app

I use DeepSeek V4 Flash (before this update) for most things:

- OpenCode for codebase editing: python scientific computing and LLM projects

- Open Interpreter Classic (python version) for Swiss army knife terminal replacement one-off task type stuff.


DeepSeek-V4-Flash-0731 scores higher than Fable 5 on Terminal-Bench, and Fable 5 is Mythos, correct?


Yes, they trained on my open source code and Wikipedia edits and Stack Overflow answers that I shared freely, so it's only fair that they release their models as open source and share back to the community that created them. I only allow my training data go to open source models.


Yeah, at least when I share my training data with labs releasing their models openly (Chinese or American or otherwise) it's nominally so an even better open model will land in my hands in the future.


Yeah the reasoning is formatted differently and the replies are often in Chinese.


Sometimes it's faster than swyping on a phone, but mostly I use it to learn about stuff and hash out ideas while driving.


The US government is vastly more likely to break down my door and arrest me for my speech than the Chinese government is. (Because I live in the US.)


Qwen3.5-plus is quite good, Qwen3.6-plus is not.


Qwen3.5-plus has been my go-to model for non-autonomous chatbot that runs arbitrary code and shell commands on my local machine for one-off tasks (unlike Claude Code). It has no problem calling tools to run code (that contains tools), and pretty smart, and cheap (though lack of token caching is making it much more expensive than it should be).

I tried Qwen3.6-plus and it was not as good.
