Proton's very biased article on Deepseek

He did not praise trump though

hiding that occidental AIs have the same kind of censorship

This is the second sentence in the article:

AI chat apps like ChatGPT collect user data, filter responses, and make content moderation decisions that are not always transparent.

They go into great deal about how they actually do not have the same kind of censorship. You should try reading the article before commenting on it.

True, hosting deepseek yourself is much better. I'd still wait and see if anyone finds weird stuff in the code itself but tbh idk how long that could take.

Can't wait for the models to get better and hopefully stay open source!

DeepSeek is open source, meaning you can modify code[...] on your own app to create an independent — and more secure — version. However, using DeepSeek in its current form — as it exists today, hosted in China — comes with serious risks for anyone concerned about their most sensitive, private information.

They are not wrong here.

After having read the article fully it doesn't seem to be that partial and acknowledge also the failing of others. It is not as stupid as the CEO stance on "Republicans helping the little guys" for sure.

Sure it might but the thing is it may still acknowledge that there are different opinions on some topics. Does reflect how whilst governments may have a narrative, people can say what they think. In China, that's a different story...

But his 'support' of the republicans was saying that 10 years ago they used to be against big tech and that he hoped Trump would vary that forward. Obviously Trump is very unlikely to do this but he is literally just hoping the republicans would do something about big tech that the dema didn't do

They didn't really praise them. They just hoped that the republicans would go back to being against big tech (like they used to be 10 years ago he claims). Obviously, Trump's not going to do that but I think we can all agree big tech is a big problem

I have tried them, and to be honest I was not surprised. The hosted service was better at longer code snippets and in particular, I found that it was consistently better at producing valid chain of thought reasoning chains (I've found that a lot of simpler models, including the distills, tend to produce shallow reasoning chains, even when they get the answer to a question right).

I'm aware of how these models work; I work in this field and have been developing a benchmark for reasoning capabilities in LLMs. The distills are certainly still technically impressive and it's nice that they exist, but the gap between them and the hosted version is unfortunately nontrivial.

weird stuff in the code

What code? We use a different runner for the model so we can run multiple different AI models, so the only thing we're getting from DeepSeek is the model.

[email protected]

Except you can't run it.

Every model You are downloading and running is simply just a checkpoint of llama....

Quit spreading that misinformation

Lemmy users very biased link to article that isn't nearly as biased as they are purposefully biasing.

Maybe this community needs stricter posting guidelines to avoid this sort of drivel?

I just meant generally, not sure what 'open source' means in the context of ai (not a programmer)

As someone living in the west I prefer propaganda that isn't trying to bring down the place where I live.
