Still doesn't know what happened at Tiananmen Square, but can tell in detail how protests were brutally ended a few years later in South Africa...

Welcome to China being China. I also doubt it can ever trash talk Mao, or Winnie the Pooh

It's not what you would like to hear though I get it

If you run it locally there's no censorship...

[–] BlackLaZoR@lemmy.world 1 points 1 hour ago

It's like 865GB so you can't. But you can run older/smaller versions on High End consumer GPU

And no price per token. So I assume we are discussing the cloud version.

Really? You sure, this is still true?

I have never run that one locally, but qwen doesn't "know" about specific Chinese historic events either when executed locally.

It was a couple of months ago at least. Also, if you use the deepthink mode online you can actually see the reply ( really criticising the Chinese regime) for a couple of seconds before it disappears. I've manage to screeshot it and also to trick him once about a "fictional" regime so I could have the answer.

Interesting. I tried their R1 model when it was all the rage and that in its thought process mentioned something about being a Chinese AI and having to provide the user with safe information. It then responded it doesn't know about any specific historic events.

It does, and it'll tell you about it. But it's their interface that censores the output, and it's not perfect. Ask it in English or Chinese and it'll censor it. But ask in Spanish or other languages and it doesn't get caught.

[–] napkin2020@sh.itjust.works 2 points 9 hours ago

Huh. Apparently in Korean it's censored. It’s also not their interface. Am using their API and still getting rejected.

It will happily give you details if search is involved(via Searxng in my case) though, so that's something.

Other than that, amazing model. I'm not having political conversation with LLMs, let alone Chinese ones.
