Try asking DeepSeek something about Xi Jinping. "Sorry, it's beyond my current scope' :-) Wondering why even it cannot cite his official party biography :-)
It's easy to mod the software to get rid of those censors
Part of why the US is so afraid is because anyone can download it and start modding it easily, and because the rich make less money
Yes and no. Not many people can afford the hardware required to run the biggest LLMs. So the majority of people will just use the psyops vanilla version that China wants you to use. All while collecting more data and influencing the public like what TikTok is doing.
Also another thing with Open source. It's just as easy to be closed as it is open with zero warnings. They own the license. They control the narrative.
There's no reason for you to bitch about free software you can easily mod.
When there is free software, the user is the product. It's just a psyops tool disguised as a FOSS.
How are you the product if you can download, mod, and control every part of it?
Ever heard of WinRAR?
Audacity? VLC media player? Libre office? Gimp? Fruitloops? Deluge?
Literally any free open source standalone software ever made?
Just admit that you aren't capable of approaching this subject unbiasly.
You just named Western FOSS companies and completely ignored the "psyops" part. This is a Chinese psyops tool disguised as a FOSS.
99.9999999999999999999% can't afford or have the ability to download and mod their own 67B model. The vast majority of the people who will use it will be using Deepseek vanilla servers. They can collect a mass amount of data and also control the narrative on what is truth or not. Think TikTok but on a work computer.
Whine more about free shit
I'm blocking you now
Bye Tankie.
Most people are going to use it on mobile. Not possible to mod the app right?
Fork your own off the existing open source project, then your app uses your fork running on your hardware.
Not everyone can afford hardware that can support a 67B LLM. You're talking top tier hardware.
