Report: DeepSeek V5 plans pretraining on Ascend chips
On November 3, 2026, according to a report by Star Market Daily, multiple industry chain sources said that DeepSeek's next-generation large model, DeepSeek V5, plans to conduct pretraining based on Huawei Ascend chips. A same-day report by East Money mentioned that previously Ascend chips were mainly used for inference tasks of DeepSeek models; after the release of DeepSeek-V4 in April 2026, Huawei said that the full series of Ascend supernode products could fully support the V4 series models; on September 30, DeepSeek open-sourced infrastructure components for the Ascend computing platform, including the TileLang compilation tool, DeepGEMM, FlashMLA, and DeepEP. The report also said that at present, the implementation of domestic computing power is still concentrated on the inference side, and the full-parameter post-training of DeepSeek-V4-Pro previously completed by the Ascend 910C cluster did not involve basic pretraining.
