Microsoft Brings DeepSeek R1 to Windows 11 Copilot+ PCs

Microsoft is bringing NPU-optimized versions of R1 to Copilot+ PCs.
– DeepSeek R1 is very first pertaining to Qualcomm Snapdragon X-powered gadgets, followed by Intel and AMD AI chipsets.
– The DeepSeek-R1-Distill-Qwen-1.5 B model is being contributed to the Microsoft AI Toolkit.

Microsoft has actually announced that it’s bringing NPU-optimized versions of DeepSeek R1 to Copilot+ PCs. The company will likewise incorporate the DeepSeek-R1-Distill-Qwen-1.5 B model into its Microsoft AI Toolkit for designers, with the 7B and 14B versions set to follow.

In a recent post, 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 enable developers to construct AI-powered apps that run locally on suitable Copilot+ PCs.

«The optimized DeepSeek designs for the NPU make the most of several of the crucial learnings and methods from that effort, consisting of how we separate out the various parts of the design to drive the finest tradeoffs between efficiency and performance, low bit rate quantization and mapping transformers to the NPU,» Microsoft explained.

Microsoft has actually laid out the hardware requirements for running these AI models on Windows 11 gadgets. To qualify, a PC should have a Neural Processing Unit (NPU) with a minimum of 40 TOPS (trillion operations per second), 16GB of RAM, and 256GB of storage. This suggests 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, designers will require to develop an Azure account on Microsoft’s website. Now, launch Azure AI Foundry and after that search for DeepSeek R1. Select the «Check out design» option, click Deploy, and then click «Deploy» once again in the pop-up window. The Chat Playground alternative will appear, and designers can begin experimenting with DeepSeek R1 in your area on their Copilot+ PCs.

Microsoft has likewise revealed that it’s making the open-source DeepSeek R1 LLM readily available for designers through Azure AI Foundry and GitHub. «Among the essential benefits of utilizing DeepSeek R1 or any other design on Azure AI Foundry is the speed at which developers can experiment, repeat, and integrate AI into their workflows. With built-in model assessment tools, they can rapidly compare outputs, benchmark efficiency, and scale AI-powered applications,» said Asha Sharma, Corporate Vice President, AI Platform.

A brand-new report from the Financial Times reveals that Microsoft is investigating whether Chinese startup DeepSeek illegally used OpenAI’s information to train its R1 model. This action breaks OpenAI’s regards to service, and Microsoft prepares to team up with the US government to safeguard its AI design.

Microsoft’s statement intends to deal with issues about DeepSeek possibly keeping data on unsecured foreign networks. To alleviate this danger, the business has actually subjected DeepSeek R1 to rigorous red teaming and security examinations to lower the danger of information breaches.
