Deep Seek's R1 model represents a significant leap forward in AI technology. It has shown to be competitive with OpenAI's latest 03 model, which is set to debut shortly. One of the most noteworthy aspects of R1 is its open-source nature, licensed under the MIT license, making it accessible for commercial use. It is hosted in a GitHub repository, albeit heavyweight due to the vast amounts of weights involved. The flexibility of R1 allows users to distill smaller, specialized models from the larger framework, a feature that could revolutionize the application of AI in various domains.
