I don't see this as the USA turning into China. China has many problematic aspects, and being an immigrant or an LGBTQ+ person in China is probably not fun, but China at this point is less stupid and understands competitiveness. China would not defund all its science overnight, hamstring its technology and trash its whole economy with tariffs on goods it cannot produce domestically, withdraw vaccines in the face of new epidemics, and cancel sustainable energy projects and funding while denying climate science.

Just use little snitch, open snitch or simple wall depending on your operating system and block the outbound connection if one ever occurs

This is mildly pedantic but you're not actually running Deepseek R1, you're running a 7B version of Qwen that's been fine-tuned on Deepseek R1 outputs. All of the "distilled" models are existing models trained on R1.

Nice catch. I'll be sure after do run the real thing

Or open source groups can make a fully open repro of it:

Could they? Probably. Would it be valuable to an AI company? Probably not. Like most startups, they're mostly shipping a minimal product as quick as possible.

Fuck. They told me that they were storing my backups.

No, not legally anyway.
