Let me paint you a picture…

US:

Trump announces Stargate, a $500 billion AI initiative with OpenAI, Oracle, and Softbank

China:

DeepSeek-R1

The world:

So, DeepSeek just dropped their new model, and with it, the whole AI market shook.

Why?
Because it’s a powerful model!

And?
Because it’s as good as OpenAI’s ChatGPT!

So what?
Because it… is… free!

Now we’re talking.

How to run DeepSeek locally on Google Colab

But we are not here to talk about politics or AI wars.

We are here to run and test the new DeepSeek R1 model.

Here is the link to run the model on Google Colab:

The notebook is set to download and run the 7-billion-parameter version.

This is a lighter yet still very powerful model.

If you’re brave enough and have the time, replace “7b” with “32b” to test a more powerful version.

Here are all the DeepSeek model variations:
