On February 17, 2024, the Opera team under Kunlun Wanwei successfully connected to the DeepSeek R1 series model in the Opera Developer browser, marking that browser technology has entered a new era of AI. This innovative measure not only brings users an unprecedented localized AI experience, but also demonstrates Opera's leading position in the field of artificial intelligence technology application.
As the world's first pioneer with built-in local large language model (LLM) in a web browser, Opera has provided users with access to more than 50 LLMs in 2024. Through deep integration with the DeepSeek R1 series models, Opera Developer successfully achieved localized deployment with the help of the Ollama framework (implemented based on llama.cpp), allowing users to directly run this powerful AI model on their personal devices, significantly improving the intelligence level of the browser.
To allow users to better experience this innovative feature, Opera provides a clear guide to use. Users only need to download the latest version of Opera Developer and run the DeepSeek R1 model on the local device with simple operations. The specific steps include: after opening the browser, click on the Aria logo in the left sidebar, enter the "Local AI Model" option in the settings menu, enter "deepseek" in the search box and select the appropriate model to download, and finally select the downloaded model in Aria's new chat window to start using it.
Taking into account the performance differences between different user devices, Opera carefully provides multiple DeepSeek R1 model versions for users to choose from. This thoughtful design ensures that users can get a smooth AI experience whether it is a high-performance device or a normal device. Users can choose the most suitable model version based on the configuration of their own equipment, so as to fully enjoy the convenience brought by AI technology while ensuring operational efficiency.
The successful access to the DeepSeek R1 model is not only an important breakthrough for Opera in the application of AI technology, but also a strong boost to the development of the entire browser industry. By integrating advanced AI technology into daily browsing experience, Opera has created a more intelligent and personalized network environment for users. This innovative measure not only improves users' work efficiency, but also points out the direction for the future development of browser technology, fully demonstrating Kunlun Wanwei's innovative strength and forward-looking thinking in the field of AI.
