Here is a video of Deepseek R1 running locally on my Macbook.
Now that everyone is amazed by the low level of resource utilization and open weight model of Deepseek R1, installed 8B model locally.

With the help of ollama it is as simple as running a single command -
"ollama run deepseek-r1:8b"

Watch the video to read the five line fairy tale about AI.

Do you have any experience running Deepseek R1?
