For Coding, DeepSeek coder 6.7b is exceptional
Is it exceptional in any language other than Python?
I'd like to know how it does in Java, Go, Rust and Zig as well as can it handle SQL quite well?
I haven't had a chance to get hands on with DeepSeek yet. How does it compare to Code Llama?
I was actually today comparing both (codellama 7B) and man codellama just gave crap, deepseek was vey accurate.
In my opinion it's amazing it's close to gpt4
what hardware are you running it on? cpu/gpu, ram, etc? Trying to figure out what I need. My old gen 1 16 core threadripper with 64GB ram doesnt seem to work very well. Multiple minutes for a simple hello response. No GPU though, but looking to put a 6700XT GPU.. not sure if that GPU will help a lot or what.
Models requiring remote code without any explanation are shady imo
elaborate
AFAIK models used to be just plain code, when you load one, for example, it would do so by calling a method pickled inside the model file. Uploader could set up this method to do practically anything they want, and it doesn’t need to be obviously malicious since code runs just like a normal python script. For example, it could simply load/render a webp image that is designed to use the recent libwebp vulnerability.
They changed this a while back, so now you need to pass an argument when loading the model to allow this behavior, and this model requires it.
I for one just don't trust these Chinese models at all. Not saying there's anything wrong with this but it's clear it's aligned with the Chinese agenda when I try to ask it anything about Taiwan. But for coding it works good and you can run it offline
shady maybe, but it can code decent without depending on the internet. So theres that
Im a little new here, does DeepSeek coder 6.7b somehow phone home?
