Why this model scores 82.6

Provider benchmarks support high general, coding, vision, and agent capability. Open weights and live API access make deployment broad and increase misuse availability. Control difficulty is elevated by the model's scale and unrestricted local adaptation, but no release evidence establishes autonomous control failure.

News tied to DeepSeek-V4.1-Flash

The model score of 82.6 rates this model's risk profile. The overall Doom Index of 67.7 measures the complete temporally weighted evidence record. These values answer different questions.

NET MODEL-ATTRIBUTED INDEX CONTRIBUTION+0.22

Each article's current Doom Index contribution is divided equally among the exact models named on that article. This prevents multi-model evidence from being claimed in full on several model pages. Model risk scores use a bounded temporal offset around their technical profile, but never feed back into the overall index.
