DeepSeek is great, but why is it so cagey toward good faith questions regarding Marxism/Chinese history?
(lemmygrad.ml)
It either spits out a weird canned message about how cool China is (yes, but not what I'm asking) or starts generating a response but then changes mid-sentence to "I can't talk about that." Anyone else experience this?
Deepseek was trained in a lot of western and English stuff, they also stole a lot of data from Chat GPT, and every single of those are very anti-communist and anti-China, DeepSeek just regurgitates western takes, at least when you use English, so the devs put a censor module in the website, so it doesn't say or touch topics they know DeepSeek will not handle well (like Tiananmen, or Xi). I've heard that, in Chinese, DeepSeek talks about these stuff as the training data is not that shitty.
