All your DeepSeek data is sent to China, including the chats you have with the AI. You only get great privacy with DeepSeek if you run the open-source model locally on a computer rather than the iPhone or Android apps.

And if you use ChatGPT the data is sent to the United States of America, including the chats you have with the AI. But unlike with DeepSeek you can’t have great privacy with it since it’s proprietary.

The level of coping and gaslighting in corporate media is insane.

Who will sell it to data brokers who will, in turn, sell it to China. And who knows how many other hostile foreign entities.

I’m honestly loving seeing corporate America melting down over being undercut by China like that hasn’t been the basis of our entire economy since 1971.

Have fun trying to ban an open weight model.

Open weight? You mean open source, or is there a new term.

Open weight means that the weights of the model (the part you need to do local inference) is available. Open source doesn’t really apply to models, since there isn’t source code, but usually it means that the software to do inference is open source.

That’s a stupid thing to do and a stupid reason to do it.

Should the US ban libre software and shill anti-libre software?

Cross-commenting since the original post was downvoted and removed on c/privacy who saw straight through this scam.

The only reason they haven’t is because our biggest platforms are built in the back of open-source software. Without actually contributing to it, of course.

I’ve got to get over my continued hesitation, on seeing an article (like this one) that starts out looking like it’s been machine-generated, to reach the obvious conclusion that it was in fact machine generated. Any actual human writers who imitate the style so accurately aren’t going to be worth reading anyway.
