    Fair, but even if it is commercial, the project being open-source is a huge step in the right direction. Specifically for DeepSeek, it has a number of censored topics like “Tiananmen Square” that it refuses to speak to, but because it’s open source, unaffiliated third parties have been able to start spins of it that reintegrate said sensitive topics.

    Perfect? Definitely no, but I’d say it’s almost 50% of the way there compared to the awful nature of ChatGPT/Google’s models. And it also made people realize that this is possible, so there’ll be more people taking it in a good direction that otherwise might not’ve tried.
