At CSSC, we tested deepseek-r1:7B, locally, on a MacBook Pro with 24G RAM. Replies were "ok", fast (even when "thinking") but not always precise or most efficient. We would judge it on par with similar models, but not superior. Admittedly, it's a far cry from the 670B model used for the API 🤔

New tool to estimate the level of participation in collective action expressed in natural language.
Applied to social media, it can produce large-scale and granular estimates of behavior change wrt collective action.

Excited to share the tool @lajello.bsky.social & I built to predict social media participation in collective action! It moves beyond keywords, tracking activism stages across topics. See it in action with climate activism on Reddit 🌱
