I have been using this for most of the evening. I am very impressed with its output. In my opinion it is actually working more efficently than claude-3.5-sonnet. Granted it does not have vision capabilities 'yet' but I am sure they may come along. Running it locally on my Ollama setup is also great as I incur no cost for token usage and no limits on what i can run. :) All in All, I think I might stay on this for a while.
When I was using Claude I seemed to be going round in circles trying to fix things. Deepseek-r1 doesent seem to exhibit those issues yet. I am sure there are some but I haven't found any yet. Also its UI/UX output is definitly better than what I experienced with Claude. Just look at this input form.
