Good thing DeepSeek is open

One thing that’s so weird to me is that while DeepSeek is somewhat too large to run on my PC, just it existing makes it easy to distill the reasoning functionality into other smaller models. I’ve been running a 34B distill locally and it’s been much better than any other local model I’ve tried so far.
