https://dev.to/dwtoledo/how-to-use-deepseek-r1-for-free-in-visual-studio-code-with-cline-or-roo-code-3an9 If you're looking for an AI that excels in reasoning and is also free because it's open source, the newly launched DeepSeek R1 is a great choice. It competes with and outperforms models like GPT-4, o1-mini, Claude 3.5, among others. I tested it and have nothing but praise! If you want to run it directly in your Visual Studio Code as a code agent similar to GitHub Copilot, without spending a dime, come along as I show you how to do this using tools like LM Studio, Ollama, and Jan. #deepseekai #llm #ai #metaai #chatgpt #gemini #openai
