What is the relationship between deepseek-v3-250324 and DeepSeek-V3-0324?
The former is the model ID used when making calls, while the latter is DeepSeek's publicly released native model name. It is a date-based update of V3, with the same model architecture as the initial V3, but with improvements to writing, frontend development, reasoning, and function calling. It should not be confused with other date-based V3 versions.
Where are its improvements in Chinese writing reflected?
The focus is on style and content quality for medium- and long-form writing, as well as continuous multi-turn rewriting, translation, and letter writing. When using it, first specify the audience, style, and information that must be retained, then refine the structure and wording over successive turns. Its style is closer to R1, but this does not mean it is an R1 reasoning model.
How do I call deepseek-v3-250324 with the standard API?
Submit model=deepseek-v3-250324 and messages to /v1/chat/completions. Read ordinary results from choices[].message.content; for streaming calls, use stream to obtain incremental results. Use this platform's API Key, and set the full base URL according to the SDK in use.
Can it generate JSON or call business functions?
It supports JSON output and function calling. You can set response_format in the dedicated endpoint, or provide tools and function parameter definitions. The prompt should still specify field requirements; after receiving tool_calls, the application executes the function and submits the results, and business data must be validated.
Can it directly search the web or read PDFs?
It can analyze web results and document bodies that have been organized into text, but text analysis does not mean the model can independently access the internet or natively parse PDFs. When real-time information is needed, first obtain the relevant content and then provide it to the model; when integrating reading tools, distinguish between the tool obtaining the body text and the model analyzing it.
