Running Deepseek R1 on my Laptop CPU (No GPU).
Note: Everything Written Here is from LLMs (OpenAI and Deepseek) Introduction to DeepSeek DeepSeek is a powerful AI tool designed for natural language processing and deep learning tasks, often relying on GPUs to accelerate computation. However, not everyone has access to high-performance GPUs, and DeepSeek's adaptability allows it to be deployed on CPU-only systems. In this blog post, I'll demonstrate how to run DeepSeek on a self-hosted server, specifically an 11th Gen Intel i5 laptop CPU. We'll leverage Ollama for model optimization and Docker for containerized deployment, ensuring an efficient and streamlined setup. Whether you're exploring AI for personal projects or lightweight applications, this guide will help you make the most of your hardware resources. Installing Docker on Linux, macOS, and Windows Docker is a powerful tool for containerization, making it easy to run and deploy applications in isolated environments. Here's how to install Docker on the thr...
