It's also just not the same thing at all. The distillations are not even remotely close to the 600+b parameters of the parent model. You can't run Deepseek on your GPU at home. It's the equivalent of buying your kid a powerwheels car. They're not driving a car. They can't drive a car at home.
Edit - I do run the distillations at home though and they're fine for what I use them for. I'm not openai-pilled. I just hate when people say that you can run the same software as a massive datacenter privately.
It's just sensationalism from a journalist who can't even be bothered to multiply two numbers.
