I have had it loop once. I had to abort the turn, clear the context (maybe I just compacted it?) and restarted. That seemed to clear it up. In general, I have not found that V4 Flash 0731 loops a lot or even any more than other models.
How were you accessing the model? I was using ollama.com’s cloud hosting the first few times I ran into it, and then it happened again the first time I tried Fireworks.ai before I made it even 10% of the way through the context window.
