Is there a "base" version of DeepSeek that just does straight next-token prediction, or does that question not make sense given how it's made?

What is the best available "base" next-token predictor these days?

DeepSeek-V3-Base is the literal answer for what you're looking for (both counts)... but hats off if you actually have the hardware to run it :).

Thank you! I wonder if there's someone out there who is hosting it and providing API access. I've poked around and don't see anything.

Know of a list of available (through an API) "base" models out there?
