r1 is far more interesting in aider, where it can make more sense of code than prior llms

Install ollama and then use this command

ollama run https://hf.co/unsloth/DeepSeek-R1-Distill-Llama-8B-GGUF:Q8_0

Great, but be aware that the smaller distilled models will not be at the level of that full model at: https://chat.deepseek.com/
Additionally, Ollama users have the option to pick a fitting model at: https://ollama.com/library/deepseek-r1

Definitely so but I was pleasantly surprised to see how well it ran on a 4 year old M1 MacBook Air

bartboeman.bsky.social•34 days ago

It is doing very well indeed! Saw some people that did run smaller versions complaining that the 'R1' did not deserve the hype because of a few bad results though. Well, hype is not needed, but while the smaller models may fit your needs, if you really like to put it to the test, try the full model.

And to add to that... If you have the hardware, you can select a larger (GGUF) model at: https://huggingface.co/collections/unsloth/deepseek-r1-all-versions-678e1c48f5d2fce87892ace5

You can run a distilled version on your local system using Ollama. I found it very entertaining 😀

sungkim.bsky.social•34 days ago

Yes. It is very entertaining.

I love its writing style compared to what I use daily (gemini). So much more "human", vs corporate sounding on geminis end.
