Would it be possible to obtain a copy of the Deep Seek R1 base model and
then make it available to Sudo Room members to make additional copies?
Noisebridge has considerable bandwidth and perhaps they could download the
700GB model.
Downloading 700GB from my ISP would probably not work, but copying the
model to a 1TB SSD would work.
Here's the Deep Seek R1 base model on Huggingface:
