    Just read the article, and don’t engage in whataboutery, or in asking questions that distract from the topic.

    There are many such reviews, and all of them point in the same direction.

    DeepSeek’s updated R1 AI model is more censored, test finds

    Chinese AI startup DeepSeek’s newest AI model, an updated version of the company’s R1 reasoning model […] might also be less willing to answer contentious questions, in particular questions about topics the Chinese government considers to be controversial […] China’s openly available AI models, including video-generating models such as Magi-1 and Kling, have attracted criticism in the past for censoring topics sensitive to the Chinese government, such as the Tiananmen Square massacre. In December, Clément Delangue, the CEO of AI dev platform Hugging Face, warned about the unintended consequences of Western companies building on top of well-performing, openly licensed Chinese AI.

    There are many more from different, very reliable sources.

    Feel free to whatabout further, I won’t respond to such comments anymore.
