In this video, we introduce two new Arcee open-source models distilled from DeepSeek-v3: Virtuoso Lite 10B and Virtuoso Medium v2 32B. We first look at the model pages on the Hugging Face hub. Then, we discuss evaluation benchmarks and show how the two new models outperform much larger models. Finally, we deploy the two models on Amazon SageMaker and run some quick tests.
