Brief Summary
This video demonstrates how to integrate the new DeepSeek V3 model into Clein to enhance workflows. It covers obtaining an API key from DeepSeek, configuring VS Code with the API key and base URL, and selecting the appropriate model ID. The DeepSeek V3 model is presented as faster and more efficient than other models like GPT-4 and Claude 3.5, especially for coding tasks.
- The DeepSeek V3 model was released recently and outperforms models like GPT-4 and Claude 3.5 on various tasks.
- An API key is required to use DeepSeek, obtainable from platform.deepseek.com.
- Configuration involves setting the base URL and model ID in VS Code to enable DeepSeek V3.
Introduction to DeepSeek V3 and Its Capabilities
The video introduces the DeepSeek V3 model and its integration with Clein to improve workflow efficiency. The author demonstrates the model's capabilities by asking it to create a website for a t-shirt selling merch store. The model rapidly generates all necessary files, showcasing its speed compared to models like Cloud and OpenAI. The DeepSeek V3 model was released recently and beats models like GPT-4 and Claude 3.5 on various tasks.
Obtaining an API Key from DeepSeek
To use the DeepSeek V3 model, an API key is required, which can be obtained from platform.deepseek.com. The process involves topping up the balance, for example, with $5, and then creating a new API key. The created API key can then be copied and pasted into a notepad for later use. Currently, DeepSeek is running a promotion with minimal API usage costs until February 2025.
Configuring VS Code with DeepSeek V3
The next step involves configuring VS Code to use the DeepSeek V3 model. This is done by accessing the OpenAI compatible settings and inputting the API key obtained earlier. Additionally, the base URL, provided in the video description, needs to be copied and pasted into the settings. The model ID can be set to either DeepSeek chat or coder, both of which are compatible with DeepSeek V3.
Testing and Demonstrating DeepSeek V3 in Clein
After configuring VS Code, the DeepSeek V3 model can be tested within Clein. The author demonstrates this by asking the model to improve the previously created website. The model processes the request quickly, and the updated website is then displayed, showing improvements such as a welcome message and functional add-to-cart feature. This showcases the model's speed and effectiveness compared to other models.
