This is how you make progress for all humanity. Allowing people to freely learn, improve, modify, and share.
You are free to learn ‘Xi Jinping thought.’ Doubt this is for the progress of humanity.
Comment on China’s DeepSeek AI poses formidable cyber, data privacy threats

Say whatever, but some open sourced it and others have not, despite their misleading “OpenAI” name. So, +1000 points to DeepSeek.

That’s not how Open Source works. Is this Chinese version of the AI likely biased? Yes…almost certainly.
But Open Source means that anyone can download and use the same source code and same technology to tinker with it and create one that isn’t biased and has nothing to do with the Chinese government.
The power of Open Source is that regardless of who creates the software originally, a million eyes are literally looking at the code. It’s nearly impossible to hide any shenanigans.

that’s not really how this works though… we don’t have the training data, so nobody else can recreate this from scratch exactly

You got it completely wrong.

Aha. Thanks for the insight.

Is it open source? Another article I read earlier said R1 is open weight, not open source. This article only says the org uses open source practices. No other mention of “open”.

Freely learn about many subjects, just as long as you aren’t wondering what happened on the 4th of June 1989.

Freely learn THE CODE, and HOW IT’S BUILT. And then you can improve upon it. That’s what open source, and libre software in particular is.
Dataset bias? You have the code. Make it your own bias.
OpenAI tries to keep knowledge to itself not realising there are tens of millions of people around the world with computers, free time, and the WWW to share it.

The point of it being open is that people can remove any censorship built into it.

Ask OpenAI’s products to explain the absurdity of conservative Christianity, or any number of bugbears the West accepts censorship over.

I asked about it on the 32b (local) version and it answered.
