  • Innovative Code LLM Offering Both Instructions and Fill-in-the-Middle: Codestral is gaining attention for being the first code LLM to handle both instructions and fill-in-the-middle tasks. It outperforms DeepSeek Coder 33B, which is a current state-of-the-art open-source code LLM and 50% larger. (Source: @maximelabonne)
  • 2024 Trends in Multimodal and Synthetic Data: GPT4-V excels at image-to-code tasks, but most open-source VLMs struggle. To improve this, a new dataset called WebSight was created using Mistral-7B-v0.1 and DeepSeek Coder 33B Instruct. (Source: @LeoTronchon)

faqs

What is DeepSeek Coder 33B Instruct?

DeepSeek Coder 33B Instruct is a 33-billion-parameter code model fine-tuned from DeepSeek Coder 33B Base on 2 billion tokens of instruction data. It is part of the DeepSeek Coder series trained on 87% code and 13% natural language, supporting project-level code completion with a 16K token context window.

Which DeepSeek model is best for coding?

Among the original DeepSeek Coder family, the 33B instruct model offers the strongest coding performance, matching GPT-3.5 Turbo on HumanEval benchmarks. For more resource-constrained environments, the 6.7B variant provides a good balance of quality and efficiency.

Can I use DeepSeek for coding?

Yes, DeepSeek Coder models are purpose-built for coding. The 33B instruct variant handles code generation, completion, debugging, and explanation across multiple programming languages including Python, Java, C++, JavaScript, and more. It can be deployed locally or accessed through hosted inference APIs.

Is DeepSeek Coder free?

DeepSeek Coder is open-source and free to use under a permissive license that supports both research and commercial applications. Model weights are publicly available for download, and the model can be run locally using common inference frameworks.

What is DeepSeek Coder used for?

DeepSeek Coder 33B is used for code generation from natural language, code completion, refactoring, and automated debugging. Its larger parameter count compared to the 6.7B variant gives it stronger performance on complex programming tasks and longer code contexts.

Which is better for coding, ChatGPT or DeepSeek?

GPT-4 outperforms DeepSeek Coder 33B on most coding benchmarks, but DeepSeek Coder 33B matches or exceeds GPT-3.5 Turbo on code-specific tasks like HumanEval. The key difference is that DeepSeek is open-source and self-hostable while ChatGPT requires an API subscription. This comparison often comes down to budget, privacy requirements, and deployment preferences.
