v0 Integrates DeepSeek-V3 into AI Gateway for UI Generation

Vercel has added DeepSeek-V3 as a selectable model within the v0 chat interface and the Vercel AI Gateway. This model is optimized for high-speed coding tasks and offers a competitive alternative to existing Claude and GPT models.

Why it matters: Builders have a new, high-performance model option that may provide better latency or stylistic results for specific UI components.
