Good to see some socialist policy’s making their way to the US…
Oh wait…
Hawley’s statement called DeepSeek “a data-harvesting, low-cost AI model that sparked international concern and sent American technology stocks plummeting.”
data-harvesting
???
It runs offline… using open-source software that provably does not collect or transmit any data…
It is low-cost and out-competes American technology, though, true
sent American technology stocks plummeting
Oh yeah, thats what did it, totally
You don’t fuck with the big man money tbh… That’s like rule 1 of the game.
For Base Model

For Chat Model
git lfs install git clone https://huggingface.co/deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-V3
Can you elaborate on the differences?
Base models are general purpose language models, mainly useful for AI researchers and people who want to build on top of them.
Instruct or chat models are chatbots. They are made by fine-tuning base models.
The V3 models linked by OP are Deepseek’s non-reasoning models, similar to Claude or ChatGPT4o. These are the “normal” chatbots that reply with whatever comes to their mind. Deepseek also has a reasoning model, R1. Such models take time to “think” before supplying their final answer; they tend to give better performance for stuff like math problems, at the cost of being slower to get the answer.
It should be mentioned that you probably won’t be able to run these models yourself unless you have a data center style rig with 4-5 GPUs. The Deepseek V3 and R1 models are chonky beasts. There are smaller “distilled” forms of R1 that are possible to run locally, though.
I heard people saying they could run the r1 32B model on moderate gaming hardware albeit slowly
32b is still distilled. The full one is 671b.
I know, but the fall off in performance isn’t supposed to be severe
You are correct. And yes that is kinda the whole point of the distilled models.

I was assuming one was pre-trained and one wasn’t but don’t think that’s correct and don’t care enough to investigate further.
Is that website legit? I’ve only ever seen https://www.deepseek.com/
And I would personally recommend downloading from HuggingFace or Ollama
r1 is lightweight and optimized for local environments on a home PC. It’s supposed to be pretty good at programming and logic and kinda awkward at conversation.
v3 is powerful and meant to run on cloud servers. It’s supposed to make for some pretty convincing conversations.
R1 isn’t really runnable with a home rig. You might be able to run a distilled version of the model though!
You’re absolutely right, I wasn’t trying to get that in-depth, which is why I said “lightweight and optimized,” instead of “when using a distilled version” because that raises more questions than it answers. But I probably overgeneralized by making it a blanket statement like that.
Tell that to my home rig currently running the 671b model…
That likely is one of the distilled versions I’m talking about. R1 is 720 GB, and wouldn’t even fit into memory on a normal computer. Heck, even the 1.58-bit quant is 131GB, which is outside the range of a normal desktop PC.
But I’m sure you know what version you’re running better than I do, so I’m not going to bother guessing.
It’s not. I can run the 2.51bit quant
You must have a lot of memory, sounds like a lot of fun!
this is deepseek-v3. deepseek-r1 is the model that got all the media hype: https://huggingface.co/deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-R1
Yea, comment OP needs to edit links with howany up votes that got.
It’s only a proposed bill (thankfully), but definitely one to keep an eye on.
Eh, it’s just virtue signaling nonsense. It’s not going anywhere.
that’s what they said about vaguely gestures at everything
That’s what everyone thought about Trump becoming president… Both times.
At this point someone could say Hitler is coming back from the dead riding a dinosaur, and my reaction would be “Yeah, sure. That may as well happen. Nothing has made sense the last 10 years. That’s just as plausible as anything else we’ve seen.”
Nothing has made sense the last 10 years.
Prolly part of the psyop tbh… We walked blind into this but puppet master knew what’s up and engineered it.
Sooner or later we’re gonna have to bypass the Great Firewall of America by VPNing into China
Wasn’t that interested before but it does give it a certain allure now to be sure.
I don’t think he understands how open source works…
Well I guess that means its time to download it even though I don’t know what I’ll do with it.
I’ll download it twice
I’m downloading it right now.
People like this should not be a government representative. But I guess that’s the trend lately
God, I hate Hawley. He’s an embarrassment to my state.
He doesn’t even live in Missouri.
That’s awesome! I didn’t know you could download an LLM and run it locally! That’s what I’m really interested in is something that’s on my side and not a conduit to Google, MS or other.
I’m so glad Hawley proposed this bill or I wouldn’t have known that deepseek was open source and downloadable! I’ll have to go look for a download.
Ollama makes it pretty easy, and there are other runners as well. Good luck!
Pretty sure that requires open-ai to be jailed
You need to think in Republican. Corporations are people up to the moment they commit a crime, at which point they are not people.
Yes the ban on TikTok is working! We’re getting more and more freer!!! The kids will be saved!!! \s \s \s
“Victory for free speech (as long as it means only we get to talk”)! /s
