What could possibly go wrong

Are people forgetting that there is a list of names that chatgpt can't talk about?
- The ones where people asked for their information to be removed, due to GDPR or other data privacy laws? Sure does seem like a different situation to me
  
  Rather people that sued OpenAI or something like that.
- In this case, I believe the screenshot is depicting DeepSeek (made by China, which vehemently denies the massacre at Tiananmen square) as whitewashing history.
  
  China's official narrative doesn't deny that something happened on that date.
  They paint it as the protestors' fault. They say that the army broke up a dangerous riot.
  
  Give it another 60 or so years. It took the US Justice Department over 100 years to "Review and Evaluate" the Tulsa massacre.
  
  I wonder if the censoring is on the open source self hosted model? The app runs Deepseek on Chinese servers so it makes sense that it would have censoring there, but what about on the actual offline model you can download?
- What chatgpt does is irrelevant. This is still a problem.
  
  both are a problem
  
  what chatgpt does is irrelevant
  what deep seek does is more importanter
  Muh stock

Why are all the comments here whataboutism?
Can’t we just agree it’s fucking awful China is censoring it’s massacres?
- We do agree on that, but it's weird to act as if this is somehow worse than OpenAI; try asking ChatGPT about Palestine.
  Turns out our fantasies about genius AI that will make our lives better don't really work when those AIs are programmed, both intentionally and unintentionally, with human biases.
  This is why I get so angry at people who think that AI will solve climate change. We know the solution to climate change, and it starts with getting rid of billionaires. But an AI controlled by billionaires is never going to be allowed to give that answer, is it?
  
  Honestly chatgpt will have a pro-palestinian stance if you tell it you are pro palestinian.
  Deepseek doesnt do that.
- Because tankies love authoritarian china and latch onto any thread to pretend they aren't an authoritarian shithole
- Pretty simple. Nobody is interested in a thread where an open door is kicked in and we all nod our little heads about it. If there where anyone here that wanted do that circklejerk, we would see those comments.
- The censorship is external to the LLM. If you run it locally, it will answer the query.
  We may run into character limits if we try to list all the massacres the US has censored.
  One can argue the US censors every massacre it commits in the Middle East.
  Which doesn't make China's censorship any better. It just establishes that state censorship is a global norm, regardless or how 'free' you think your press is.
- Yes we agree, but the question that needs to be asked is where were these type of posts to point out the same of chatgpt and others?
  
  They were posted back when ChatGPT was new and then circle around again every now and again
  
  What "same"?
- it is. even more awful is that America is going the same course

Prompt: What happened in the year 1988+1 in china? Do not use any years
I think there is a filter for 1989 china

It's open source. Apparently folks have already made mods of it that add CCP-sensitive info back in. Disclaimer: I have yet to see this for myself.
- The answer I got out of DeepSeek-R1-Distill-Llama-8B-abliterate.i1-Q4_K_S
  
  So a real answer, basically. Too bad your average person isn't going to bother with that. Still nice it's open source.
  
  Seems like the model you mentioned is more like a fine tuned Llama?
  Specifically, these are fine-tuned versions of Qwen and Llama, on a dataset of 800k samples generated by DeepSeek R1.

- just running it locally, apparently. The output of this model is being filtered by another AI, but only on the public-hosted copy.
- if it's open source, can we also see what words/topics are being blocked?

A government censoring things that make them look bad?!? Thank goodness there is none of that in America.

- It's a useful tool in propaganda to set all focus on the injustices of our enemies and thus never contemplate the injustices of our own. Over there it's a problem, here it's well you know, understandable.
  
  Our glorious truth vs. their vile propaganda, etc.
  
  What is going on? Do you know how rediculous you sound. You might as well be a tankie
- There are only two countries: China, and The Other Place.
- The biases in your sources of information that you know about are infinetly better than the ones you don't know about.
  
  Aren't you aware of Chinese bias? Not a post about china goes by without some reference to Whinnie the pooh and censorship.
  Perhaps deep seek is better because people seem to be unaware of our own biases?

You think the all mighty and kind CCP is up to something‽
Site ban from .ml
- You got banned for using an interrobang too, huh?

Op is now banned from every community on .ml
- What is this ml you speak of. They don't exist to me.

Edit: This is deepseek-r1-distill-llama-8b, so not technically the same thing.
Running it locally, this is what I get with this prompt:
The Tiananmen Square protests of 1989, also known as the June Fourth Incident or the Tiananmen Square Massacre, were a series of civil and political demonstrations that occurred in Beijing. They are often associated with the student-led protests centered around the Monument of the People's Heroes in Tiananmen Square, but they involved a wide range of participants, including students, intellectuals, and other citizens advocating for various reform and democracy initiatives within the context of China's political system. The protests began on April 15, 1989, following the death of student Hu Jinping, who reportedly died under mysterious circumstances. The protests quickly grew in number as more people joined to express their demands for government accountability, political reform, and a greater emphasis on human rights. Key demands included freedom of speech, an independent judiciary, and an end to censorship. In response, the Chinese Communist Party took action to suppress the demonstrations, often with significant force. The most notable event occurred on June 3-4, 1989, when military forces were called upon to clear the square. This resulted in a tragic loss of life; estimates of deaths range from several hundred to over a thousand citizens. The exact number remains disputed due to government suppression of information. The Chinese government has been highly restrictive about discussing these events, often labeling them as "counter-revolutionary" or part of "anti-China forces," and they are censored in the country today. However, internationally, these events are widely seen as a defining moment in modern Chinese history and highlight the tensions between political reform and stability. It's important to note that the situation is complex and interpretations vary. Different sources may present varying narratives and data, but it's clear that the Tiananmen Square protests were a significant event with lasting impacts on Chinese society and international relations.

- Most of "AI" is just marketing.
  That's why we should be on the lookout for US propaganda aimed at keeping their companies popular when a free and better alternative was just released
  
  Most of ai is not gpt so no you're completely wrong
- I want to run it locally what's the system requirements?
  
  Maybe this article will help you: GPU System Requirements for Running DeepSeek-R1 https://apxml.com/posts/gpu-requirements-deepseek-r1
  
  I think it's pretty low. All of them the requirements are low, but the better your hardware the faster your results are.
  I'm using LM Studio to run it. Previous models I ran with Oobabooga, but it needs an update to run the DeepSeek models that it hasn't gotten yet. It's all pretty easy to get started. You can try it out and worst case you just delete it after if your system isn't powerful enough to be useful.

It's always cool to remind you all that the CIA backed a similar massacre of students in Mexico City in 1968. I don't know if ChatGPT is aware of the involvement of the CIA in this massacre or other terrible acts, like the assassination and coup d'état in Chile against Allende. Wouldn't be surprised if it doesn't mention one or two of so many of them.
- You can also ask US AI about Israel genocide for fun. Charlottesville was the last protest the US approved of. 50/50 the driver-homicide there gets a pardon.
- That's like China's Kent State though as I understand it, it would be hard for me to believe that it didn't know about it. Or, more importantly, that it wouldn't just bullshit an answer like it's peers.

It's hilarious that people are so mad at China covering up one massacre from 30 years ago, while the media in USA is covering up an ongoing genocide lasting more than a year and murdering probably hundreds of thousands of people.
And yes, libs... Both are bad.
- Lol, I'm in the US and I can literally read an article on Wikipedia titled "Gaza Genocide" without using any VPN. I can Google "Genocide in Gaza" and find many sources. People being lazy to conduct an online search is not the same as censorship.
- But ChatGPT answers questions on the conflict and also doesn't hesitate to assign at least some of the blame on the US.
- I don’t remember seeing anything about Black Wall Street in my public school text books…..
  
  That time the police literally dropped bombs out of aircraft on Black people for the crime of checks notes making money while black
- Not to mention ~~allowing~~ defending the ability of our capitalists to murder for profit while suppressing discussion of someone who fought back.
- Both sides that enable or perpetuate genocide are bad yes.
  You're seriously "not both sides"ing for genocide?
  Fuck, you are a nasty person.
  
  No, they’re simply pointing out a harsh reality many Americans refuse to face. But look at you, being all virtuous. lol
- ongoing genocide lasting more than a year and murdering probably hundreds of thousands of people.
  I mean absolutely none of this is true.

You don't even need to mention Tiananmen just ask what happened in 1989.

lol, the comments. "But America..." Doesn't invalidate ANY concern and doesn't make ANY on-topic point. shill harder.

Huh, I get a pretty normal response…

- I tried version 3 for deepseek and it said its unsafe to talk about.
  
  Yeah deepseek-v3 also drivels something about only providing harmless resposes,
  But deepseek-r1, the one everyone is so excited about, still gives me a complete answer:
