Summary

DeepSeek's distilled new R1 AI model, DeepSeek-R1-0528-Qwen3-8B, can run on a single GPU, outperforming comparable models on math benchmarks while being less computationally demanding, making it accessible for research and industrial development focused on small-scale models.

Key Points

  • DeepSeek released a smaller, distilled version of its new R1 AI model called DeepSeek-R1-0528-Qwen3-8B that can run on a single GPU.
  • The distilled model outperforms comparably sized models like Google's Gemini 2.5 Flash on certain math benchmarks like AIME 2025.
  • DeepSeek-R1-0528-Qwen3-8B is available under a permissive MIT license and can be used commercially without restriction.
