Huawei Celia app supports DeepSeek R1 AI model
Huawei Integrates Celia App with DeepSeek R1 AI Model
Huawei has officially integrated its Celia virtual assistant with the DeepSeek R1 AI model, enhancing its capabilities with advanced AI-driven services. This upgrade brings powerful new features to Celia users, but there’s an unexpected twist!
The Chinese tech giant has linked the Celia app to DeepSeek R1 and even launched the first beta version of the AI model within the HarmonyOS NEXT-powered Celia application. The beta release introduces several useful functions, including:
- Providing in-depth answers to user queries
- Assisting with coding tasks
- Solving mathematical problems
- Performing logical reasoning
Huawei users have reported that the DeepSeek R1 beta is accessible in the Smart AI Agent section of the Celia app. Many users also shared that they can seamlessly interact with the AI model via Celia Assistant, making reasoning-based tasks more efficient and enhancing the overall AI experience.
How to access DeepSeek R1 in the Celia app?
In case you have upgraded your device to the HarmonyOS NEXT, then you’re eligible to use the new technology. Ensure that the Celia Assistant is running on the 11.2.10.310 or above version. After updating the app, follow these steps:
- Open the Huawei Celia app
- Click on the Discover option
- Now Select the”Smart Agent” tab
- Tap on DeepSeek R1 option
A short description of the DeepSeek-R1 AI model reads:
“I am an intelligent agent based on the open-source version of DeepSeek, aiming to help HarmonyOS users gain a deep thinking experience.”
For now, it is unclear when the non-HarmonyOS NEXT users will be able to use this new technology. Perhaps the only option is to update to new software.
DeepSeek R1 service relies on Ascend computing power and jointly supported by SiliconFlow and Huawei Cloud.
