Well the US big tech models are strongly left-biased as was shown multiple times. It's almost certain an organization or government will try to push their worldview and narrative into the model.

That's why open source models are so important - and on this front DeepSeek wins hands down.






I love how people love throwing the word "left" as it means anything. Need I remind you how many times bots were caught on twitter using chatgpt praising putin? Sure, go ahead and call it left if it makes you feel better but I still take the European and American left over the left that is embedded into russia and china - been there, done that, nothing good ever comes out of it and deepseek is here to back me up with it's answers.

Seriously, pro-Putin Twitter bots is the argument against open source LLMs from China?

If you re-read what I've wrote (especially the last line) you'll understand that I don't have to accept what the left/right of USA/Europe or China/Russia thinks or wants me to think - the model is open source. That's the key point.


The question is, however, is it really "open" if it refuses to address well known and documented facts? And facts that it was clearly exposed to. Doesn't scream "openness" if you ask me. It's not like it's social credit could go down, if it was truly "open".

Some people feel reality has a leftwing bias.

Yes, people born after the fall of the USSR and the Berlin Wall, generally.

"Is this leftwing bias in the room with us right now". I should print that on a shirt.
