Microsoft Brings DeepSeek R1 to Windows 11 Copilot+ PCs
Microsoft is bringing NPU-optimized versions of DeepSeek R1 to Copilot+ PCs.
– DeepSeek R1 is first pertaining to Qualcomm Snapdragon X-powered devices, followed by Intel and AMD AI chipsets.
– The DeepSeek-R1-Distill-Qwen-1.5 B design is being included to the Microsoft AI Toolkit.
Microsoft has announced that it’s bringing NPU-optimized versions of DeepSeek R1 to Copilot+ PCs. The business will likewise incorporate the DeepSeek-R1-Distill-Qwen-1.5 B design into its Microsoft AI Toolkit for developers, with the 7B and 14B versions set to follow.
In a recent article, Microsoft revealed that DeepSeek R1 models will initially be available on Qualcomm Snapdragon X-powered PCs, followed by Intel Core Ultra 200V laptop computers and AMD AI chipsets. This release will allow designers to construct AI-powered apps that run locally on suitable Copilot+ PCs.
“The enhanced DeepSeek models for the NPU benefit from several of the crucial knowings and strategies from that effort, including how we separate out the different parts of the design to drive the finest tradeoffs in between efficiency and efficiency, low bit rate quantization and mapping transformers to the NPU,” Microsoft discussed.
Microsoft has laid out the hardware requirements for running these AI models on Windows 11 devices. To qualify, a PC must have a Neural Processing Unit (NPU) with a minimum of 40 TOPS (trillion per second), 16GB of RAM, and 256GB of storage. This implies that PCs with old NPUs won’t be able to run these models locally.
How to run DeepSeek R1 on Windows 11 Copilot+ PCs?
To start with DeepSeek on a Copilot+ PC, developers will need to develop an Azure account on Microsoft’s website. Now, launch Azure AI Foundry and then look for DeepSeek R1. Select the “Have a look at model” alternative, click Deploy, and after that click “Deploy” once again in the pop-up window. The Chat Playground choice will appear, and developers can begin experimenting with DeepSeek R1 locally on their Copilot+ PCs.
Microsoft has actually likewise announced that it’s making the open-source DeepSeek R1 LLM readily available for developers through Azure AI Foundry and GitHub. “One of the essential advantages of using DeepSeek R1 or any other design on Azure AI Foundry is the speed at which designers can experiment, repeat, and integrate AI into their workflows. With built-in model evaluation tools, they can quickly compare outputs, benchmark performance, and scale AI-powered applications,” stated Asha Sharma, Corporate Vice President, AI Platform.
A new report from the Financial Times reveals that Microsoft is investigating whether Chinese startup DeepSeek illegally utilized OpenAI’s information to train its R1 model. This action violates OpenAI’s terms of service, and Microsoft prepares to team up with the US government to protect its AI design.
Microsoft’s announcement aims to deal with concerns about DeepSeek possibly storing information on unsecured foreign networks. To reduce this threat, the business has subjected DeepSeek R1 to strenuous red teaming and safety examinations to decrease the risk of information breaches.
