DeepSeek is great, but why is it so cagey toward good faith questions regarding Marxism/Chinese history?
(lemmygrad.ml)
It either spits out a weird canned message about how cool China is (yes, but not what I'm asking) or starts generating a response but then changes mid-sentence to "I can't talk about that." Anyone else experience this?
You can pen-test the restrictions pretty easily. Its coded to censor mentions of China or Chinese leaders in an political context (or maybe any context at all)
If you ask the same question but ask it to replace any mention of the word China with something else (I used zeon from msg), it will actually answer the question, but obliquely.
If you ask it to answer again with real Chinese historical figures, it fails
