Comment on No, DeepSeek isn’t uncensored if you run it locally

I've never heard that myth. But yeah, it's government mandated censorship. No Chinese company can release a model that doesn't have censorship baked in. And it's not very hard to check this. Fist thing I did was download one of the smaller variants of the R1 distills and ask it some provocative questions. And it refused to answer. Much like Meta's instruct-tuned models or generally most of the models out there. Just with the political censorship on top.

I never believed that myth either, but it’s been around here on Lemmy these days :-)

Okay. I guess at this point there is every possible claim out there anyways. I've read it's too censored, it's not censored enough, it was cheap to train, it wasn't as cheap to train as they claimed, they used H800, they probably used other cards as well... There is just an absurd amount of unsubstantiated myths out there. Plus all the speculation regarding Nvidia's stock price...
